๐ง John Coltrane with Eric Dolphy, "Evenings at the Village Gate". Recorded in 1961, as JC and ED were starting to take shit from the "community" about their new music being "anti-jazz". The recording was discovered at the NY Public Library in 2017. It sounds pretty damned good too, a very much "you are there" quality. JC and ED are inventing new notes on their respective instruments, with the quartet in full boil. A valuable historic jazz document.

"Africa" is riDONKulous. I can't imagine sitting in that club with my face screwed up saying "that ain't jazz"
