My recommendation for a starter has to be "My Favorite Things".



It was my first Coltrane album, still a classic in my book.

Other favs not mentioned above are: "Soultrane", "Coltrane's Sound" and "Ballads".

For strictly beginners I'd say "Live a the Village Vanguard Again!", "Stellar Regions" or the "Live in Japan" box.

I recommend this more mellow compilation, again depending on what style you like:
