On four days during November 1961, at the historic Village Vanguard in the heart of Greenwich Village, John Coltrane and his quartet recorded 22 landmark performances. The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings presents them complete and in performance order for the first time ever on vinyl. Limited to an initial pressing of 2,500 units globally, this deluxe 7-LP box set features over four hours of music recorded at pivotal moment in Coltrane’s evolution, capturing his classic quartet (McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Elvin Jones) augmented by guests including Eric Dolphy and Reggie Workman.
