Settin The Pace

LP (Item 72442) Prestige, 1958 — Condition: Very Good
Temporarily Out Of Stock

LP, Vinyl record album

✈
❔
4 long tracks with plenty of room to roam around – a perfect setting for a young John Coltrane to demonstrate his distinctly different approach to the tenor sax! The album's one of Trane's key classics for Prestige – a quartet side that features backing by the trio of Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Art Taylor on drums – very open, and uniquely creative – especially in some of the more surprising moments! Titles include a great version of Jackie McLean's "Little Melonae", plus "Rise N Shine", "If There Is Someone Lovelier Than You", and "I See Your Face Before Me".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(Mono yellow and black label NJ pressing with RVG stamp, AB etch, and deep groove! Back cover has light water damage on the bottom few inches – just a bit of peeling – and front has some light laminate peeling near the opening edge. Vinyl is clean.)

Very Good

  • Vinyl can have some dirt, but nothing major.
  • May not shine under light, but should still be pretty clean, and not too dirty.
  • May have a number of marks (5 to 10 at most), and obvious signs of play, but never a big cluster of them, or any major mark that would be very deep. Most marks should still not click under a fingernail.
  • May not look near perfect, but should play fairly well, with slight surface noise, and the occasional click in part of a song, but never throughout a whole song or more.
  • This is clearly a copy that was played by someone a number of times, but which could also be a good "play copy" for someone new.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Impassioned Tenor-Man
Alto, Early 60s. Very Good+
There's not much in the way of notes on the cover, but the album feels like prime early 60s work from the Coltrane quartet – long tracks with bold solos – and titles that include "Cousin Mary", "Body & Soul", "Interpretations", and "March 2nd On ... LP, Vinyl record album
Atlantic, Late 50s/Early 60s. Near Mint-
A great complement to the classic Atlantic albums by Coltrane – material recorded during the same stretch, but never issued at the time!

Live in Paris (2LP set)
Affinity (UK), 1965. Very Good+ 2LP Gatefold
Coltrane caught live in Paris on two days in July, 1965, with McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones. The set includes two takes on "Impressions", one more out than the other, plus "Blue Valse", "Afro Blue", and "Naima". Good live stuff that shows a ... LP, Vinyl record album

His Greatest Years Vol 3
Impulse, 1960s. Very Good+ 2LP Gatefold
A 2 LP retrospective of some of the more spiritual exploratory sides 'Trane was cutting in the mid to late '60's for Impulse. A number of cuts feature the classic quartet with Jimmy Garrison, McCoy Tyner & Elvin Jones, but a few feature some of the later lineups with Pharoah Sanders, Reggie ... LP, Vinyl record album

Kulu Se Mama
Impulse, 1966. Very Good+ Gatefold
One of our favorite albums ever from John Coltrane – but a record that's sometimes eclipsed by the genius of A Love Supreme! The feel here is very similar to that one – long tracks that introduce a new mode of searching, spiritual jazz for the 60s – one that's performed by a core ... LP, Vinyl record album

John Coltrane

Lush Life
Prestige, 1957/1958. Near Mint-
A beautiful little album from the young John Coltrane, and one that hides its strong sense of depth behind a familiar jazz standard used as a title! In some way, the record is almost experimental for the time – as side one features the tenor of Coltrane alongside just the bass of Earl May ... LP, Vinyl record album

John Coltrane

Coltrane Jazz
Atlantic, 1960. Very Good-
The title may be a simple one, but the record really marks a key point in John Coltrane's development – an embrace of the newer freedoms allowed to him at Atlantic Records, but in a way that's a bit more subtle than some of his other work for the label! At one level, the record moves at the ... LP, Vinyl record album

My Favorite Things
Atlantic, 1961. Very Good+
Wonderful wonderful wonderful work from the legendary John Coltrane – and even though it's probably one of his best-selling albums of all time, it's still a treasure – and has an essential place in just about any jazz collection! We've heard the original title version of "My ... LP, Vinyl record album
Impulse, 1961. Very Good- Gatefold
Sublimely spiritual work from the great John Coltrane – a live album, but one that's easily one of his most important contributions to music in the early 60s – and a set that we'd rank right up there with his best studio sides for Impulse or Atlantic Records at the time! The group here ... LP, Vinyl record album

Eric Dolphy

Far Cry (2nd cover)
Prestige, 1960. Very Good+
Eric Dolphy's first meeting in the studio with trumpeter Booker Little – a brilliant batch of modernism that's easily one of the hippest records Little ever worked on! The Dolphy heard here is Eric at his most inventive – sharp-edged and angular one minute, then spiritually lyrical the ... LP, Vinyl record album
Prestige, Early 50s. Very Good+
An album that compiles early Miles Davis sides from two different Prestige sessions of the early 50s. One features Miles with a sextet that includes Sonny Rollins, Bennie Green, John Lewis, Percy Heath, and Roy Haynes – on the tracks "Morpheus", "Down", "Blue ... LP, Vinyl record album
