Picked up today at an estate sale.
This record has been played. It has some smudges and needs cleaning.
The sleeve has a bend as shown.
Because of its condition, by bidding on it you agree that you’d buy it as is, no returns. Please understand.
It’s Coltrane, man!
The matrix has the initials of Rudy Van Gelder.
I assume it was recorded in his New Jersey studio.
FYI: Africa/Brass is the eighth studio album by jazz musician John Coltrane, released on September 1, 1961 on Impulse! Records. The sixth release for the fledgling label and Coltrane's first for Impulse!, it features Coltrane's working quartet augmented by a larger ensemble to bring the total number of participating musicians to 21.
Its big band sound, with the unusual instrumentation of French horns and euphonium, presented music very different from anything that had been associated with Coltrane to date. While critics originally gave it poor ratings, more recent jazz commentators have described it as "amazing" and as a "key work in understanding the path that John Coltrane's music took in its final phases.”
