"Live At Birdland" is a legendary live album by the iconic jazz saxophonist John Coltrane, released on CD by Impulse! Records. Captured in 1963 at New York's famed Birdland club, this recording showcases Coltrane and his classic quartet?McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones?at the height of their creative powers. The album features both electrifying live performances and studio tracks that highlight Coltrane?s innovative approach to improvisation and composition. Notable pieces include "Afro-Blue," "The Promise," and the deeply moving "Alabama." As one of jazz?s most influential figures, John Coltrane revolutionized modern music with albums like "A Love Supreme" and "Giant Steps," earning him a place among the genre?s immortals. Impulse! Records has long been recognized as a premier label for groundbreaking jazz recordings since its founding in 1960, supporting artists who have shaped the soundscape of contemporary music.
The cd sound feels solid and of course the sound to me, sounds amazing on this pressing. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED... Coltrane forever
