Impulse!, 1997
On four days during November 1961, at the historic Village Vanguard in the heart of Greenwich Village, John Coltrane and his quartet recorded 22 landmark performances. The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings presents them complete and in performance order for the first time ever on vinyl. Limited to an initial pressing of 2,500 units globally, this deluxe 7-LP box set features over four hours of music recorded at pivotal moment in Coltrane’s evolution, capturing his classic quartet (McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Elvin Jones) augmented by guests including Eric Dolphy and Reggie Workman. Includes a beautiful 20-page booklet with essays, photos and original illustrations. Note: This set was mastered from the original analog tapes, except for six tracks derived from digital sources that were processed through an analog chain during the creation of the master cutting tapes.
