John Coltrane: Evenings At The Village Gate – With Eric Dolphy Vinyl 2LP
“In August of 1961, the John Coltrane Quintet played an engagement at the legendary Village Gate in Greenwich Village, New York. Eighty minutes of never-before-heard music from this group were recently discovered at the New York Public Library. In addition to some well-known Coltrane material (‘Impressions’), there is a breathtaking feature for Eric Dolphy’s bass clarinet on ‘When Lights Are Low’ and the only known non-studio recording of Coltrane’s composition ‘Africa’, from the Africa/Brass album.” – Impulse!
