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?

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) ....

John Coltrane - Plays

I always think of this one as the forgotten jewel. Rarely mentioned but some of Coltrane's absolute best playing.

And also as the album cover where Trane is playing a short-shank Selmer Soloist mouthpiece!

It’s one of the Quartets very best. I’ve got the LP as well plus the cd for the bonus material.

Played it all today, so just first impressions, very pleased to have bought it. 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.

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.

Yes, I was taken by that aspect
