One of my favorite Coltrane-albums. This version sounds just fine. Great production, crystal clear. The music is intense, free but coherent. Heavy rhythms and powerfull solos. All four are on fire!

Album images are from "Transition" LP (Impulse! AS-9195), not Selflessness.

Wow this is close to criminal.

Fascinating journey through Coltrane's music evolution. Beautiful modal-blues Dear Lord. Explosive Transition. I like the sound of his tenor in louder and expressives parts. Along with MJQ and early Jazz Messengers belongs to the best band ever. Excellent Japanese pressing and clear, precise sound. Must have album.
