First mono pressing with AM PAR on label. Laminated stereo gatefold sleeve.
The 1962 quartet statement, and the album where the classic band comes into complete focus on record. "Out of This World" surges for minutes on end over Elvin Jones' rolling polyrhythms - one of the great sustained grooves of the decade - while "Soul Eyes" defines the Coltrane ballad forever: patient, majestic, bottomless. John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison and Elvin, the four-way conversation that would carry the music to A Love Supreme and beyond, here settling into its deep working groove. Sometimes overlooked between the famous titles on either side of it, and that is a mistake. Impulse! original series.
