Live at Birdland

~ Release by John Coltrane (see all versions of this release, 12 available)

Annotation

Additional:
It's not clear what VMG did recently (~1995), and what they do *actually* publish under IMPD98 and/or Impulse!/GRP 98 (the 6 or 5 tracks edition).
Same confusion surrounds #1 length (see the 6 tracks edition).

# Tracks 1–3 recorded October 8, 1963 at Birdland, New York City, NY
# Tracks 4–5 recorded November 18, 1963 at Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, NJ
