what do you do for an encore behind something like this?

whoops, had no idea that went through the first time... sorry for saying the same thing twice!

While Impressions does follow the same structure, you're a little bit off on the Blue Train comment... Blue Train actually precedes Kind of Blue by 2 years. Blue Train from 1957 and Kind of Blue from 1959. On Blue Train Coltrane still sounds like he's working around the idea of superimposing as many chords as possible over a single given bar line... the whole "sheets of sound" approach... whereas after Kind of Blue he got into the heavier modal approach... A Love Supreme, Impressions, etc...

Blue Train came out in 1957, Kind of Blue wasn't out until 1959... Coltrane's basis for Blue Train sits more alongside his work on superimposing extended chords on top of a standard set of changes (in Blue Train's case an Eb blues). What Ira Gitler called "sheets of sound." The modal stuff came a bit later on, though...

awesome song and musician! coltrane's style is definitely raw!

impressions and so what use the same chord progression... coltrane was inspired to do blue train because of so what as well

the two chords of this song make me feel more than the kind of music you listen

And I think that the LACK of ability to experience a wide range of conflicting emotions while listening to great music, is a sign of either deeply repressed feelings, or tone deafness.
