THE ONLY LIVE PERFORMANCE OF TRANE’S MASTERPIECE
FIRST EVER reissue on vinyl
Special double-LP “Supreme” Edition
Includes a replica pull-out original concert poster
Celebrating SIXTY YEARS since the original recording
of the acclaimed masterpiece A Love Supreme.
A Love Supreme was originally recorded in one take in
December 1964 and was released the following year by
Impulse Records. The critically acclaimed album, a suit
comprising of four parts, is universally recognised as
Coltrane’s masterpiece and has been certified Gold in
the UK and Platinum in the USA.
In July 1965 the John Coltrane Quartet were booked
to appear at the 6th International Jazz Festival, Juan-
Les-Pins, Antibes, France, it was to be their final visit
to Europe. On their first night, Monday 26th July, they
performed the complete A Love Supreme suit with
the original line-up: John Coltrane (tenor sax), McCoy
Tyner (piano), Jimmy Garrison (bass) and Elvin Jones
(drums). The performance was recorded by French TV
but sadly only 12-minutes has survived. Fortunately, the
Charly archivists have retrieved and restored the entire
live concert, the ONLY performance by the original
musicians.
