John Coltrane

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:

The music in this CD comes from no-professional privates tapes and its technical sound quality its no up to today's standarts. However, it is released because of the impotance of the musicians involved and of its high musical and historical value. Every effort has been made to improve the sound qualilty through advanced restoration technologies.

This edition presents a complete unissued set by Coltrane at the Showboat in Philadelphia. It was recorded one week after the set that was presented on RLR 88620. McCoy Tyner was late that day, and so Trane played the first three tunes and most of the fourth in the unusual trio format of tenor sax/bass/drums!

Among other highlights, this set presents rare live versions by Coltrane of Up ‘Gainst the Wall and It's Easy to Remember, as well as the only existing testimony of Trane at the piano!
