180g 6LP Mono Box Set Plus Exclusive Replica 7"Single!
Housed in Elegant Cloth-Bound Box Including a 32 Page Booklet!
While John Coltrane first gained attention for his revolutionary 'sheets of sound' technique, it was the deep spirituality of his music that really made his recordings as a bandleader such classics. The albums this giant of music recorded for Atlantic in 1959 and 1960 really represent the heart of his legacy.
For the first time since their original release, this box set gathers Coltrane's mono recordings from the Atlantic vaults to be released as a 6LP set with a 7" vinyl single. The set is packaged in an elegant cloth-bound box. Fully remastered in glorious mono, original studio albums come in glossy tip-on LP sleeves, replicating the original artwork and labels.
Albums include: Giant Steps (1960), Bags & Trane (1961) with Milt Jackson, Ole Coltrane (1962), Coltrane Plays The Blues (1962), The Avant Garde (1966) with Don Cherry. The 6th LP features outtakes, and a replica 7" vinyl single of the original My Favorite Things Part I & II, a hit for John Coltrane in 1961, is included. The set also includes a 12 x 12, 32-page, perfect-bound booklet, with period photos by Lee Friedlander and liner notes notes by Grammy-winning jazz writer Ashley Kahn.
