I don't think so, unless it is in one of my 45 cases, which are completely disorganized. I do have the booklet though. How do those 4 tracks compare to the rest of the double LP? Quote

I believe it was a wise move to separate these tracks via a "45 EP", as the album as a whole is coherent and close to perfection (at least as crossover from Soul to a broader audience in the mid70's) ....

Rabshakeh Posted July 8 Report Posted July 8 John Coltrane - Plays I always think of this one as the forgotten jewel. Rarely mentioned but some of Coltrane's absolute best playing. Quote

I’ve got the LP as well plus the cd for the bonus material. 1 hour ago, mjazzg said: Chet Baker - The Complete Pacific Jazz Studio Performances Of The Chet Baker Quartet With Russ Freeman [Mosaic Records, USA 1987] Working my way through this new arrival, currently on side 5.

Very taken by Freeman's playing so far I like what Freeman does to Baker (whose playing I tend to like or dislike on a by-album basis depending on the sidemen). There are some quite unexpected chords in there. Not super unexpected. But enough to spin Baker off into new directions. Quote

Very taken by Freeman's playing so far Yeah he was a very fine piano player. Very recognizable trough his own style that is really part of the whole sound of these records. Quote
