European Tour 1962

Magnificent. Generally good sound quality which the compiler has cleverly sequenced so that worst is last. If you love multiple versions of great tunes each different then this is for you. Would be a desert island disc because there is so much of it.

All credit to Chant Du Monde for their Coltrane releases of late,I had the 61 tour already,purchased prior to their set,piecemeal,a variably recorded set,with Stockholm being the high point,but this is just as welcome,not a vast range of numbers,perhaps trying for the uninitiated,but for the Trane enthusiast,always interesting,to hear the variety of interpretation,never the same twice,but that's why I love jazz.I just wish someone would do something similar for Art Pepper,whose Galaxy live material seems to be lying in a vault,disregarded.He was,to me,the alto analog of Coltrane,in his comeback years.
