Contrary to its title, the album offers three live recordings from the stage of midtown Manhattan's Birdland jazz club on October 8, 1963 alongside two studio recordings made at Rudy Van Gelder's Englewood Cliffs studio the following month—all featuring Coltrane with his legendary quartet of pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison, and drummer Elvin Jones. Highlights include the original \"Alabama,\" written in response to the 1963 Birmingham church bombing, and a live read of Mongo Santamaria's \"Afro Blue\" with Coltrane offering a commanding lead on soprano saxophone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerve Acoustic Sounds Series titles are mastered from the original analog tapes by Matthew Lutthans, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings (QRP) and packaged in high-quality tip-on gatefold jackets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 Afro-Blue\u003cbr\u003eA2 I Want To Talk About You\u003cbr\u003eB1 The Promise\u003cbr\u003eB2 Alabama\u003cbr\u003eB3 Your Lady\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Coltrane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64472240685425,"sku":"00199957085496","price":38.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/4753\/3937\/files\/JC_LAB_PROD_SHOT_TRANSPARENT_54d63b5f-a3bf-4952-973b-5f176acf8600.png?v=1787930352","url":"https:\/\/thesoundofvinyl.us\/products\/john-coltrane-live-at-birdland-acoustic-sounds-series-lp","provider":"The Sound Of Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
