fourwnds initial listening in it classic Coltrane that offers fire and passion in his playing. There are elements of trad Jazz, as well as, the avant garde.The listener is in for a treat as we get a rare opportunity to hear this quartet laying down their framework, signature sound. At times, a note here or a note there, hints at a future "A Love Supreme". Run do not walk and buy this release.
I'm probably last to see Tidal offers both 24 and 16 bit files of the Deluxe Version. There's an edgy, live feel to the band's playing (okay, that's probably greatly influenced by what I read of the sessions). Good pace and excellent sound quality even if it is mono (which doesn't usually excite me, either). The music is accessible with great individual solos. A lot more listenable than late Coltrane (e.g., w/Phraroah Sanders).
