    I just can’t get enough of late 65 to his death in 67. I hear it’s because he tried LSD during the year 65. If so, I’m glad because it helped his artistic ability. This concert is for sure one of my favorites. Unfortunately the sleeve on both sides of the gatefold were unglued on top. Easy fix and back to a vg+ sleeve. I love the cover pic too. This copy has bright colors still so it sure looks pretty. What a steal at 18$

      Great sound on this release, albeit a bit muffled due to the nature of the live recording. Just turn up the volume a bit and the instruments shine through with ease. As for the music itself there are no real words for what Coltrane and his band accomplished here, an absolute masterclass of transcendental sound.

        One of his best live albums for sure, includes incredible drum solo.

          Why is Leo Part 3 placed at the end of side D? This makes it difficult to hear the take all the way through.
