John Coltrane Quintet	4 December 1961	Baden-Baden Germany	John Coltrane (ts); Eric Dolphy (as); McCoy Tyner (pno); Reggie Workman (bass); Elvin Jones (dr).	366. Impressions (as) 7:30 367. My Favorite Things (fl) 11:06	Michael Fitzgerald corrected the date based on the 2007 edition of Fujioka, which says this was the last date on the tour. Bill Hery notes: The discography in MRCD 116 above lists this as Jazz Connoisseur JC112 "Quartet and Quintet in Europe", and includes a version of Every Time We Say Goodbye (again, Eric doesn't play on it). Simosko notes that the "Coltrane Legacy" video (Video Artists VAI-69035) contains complete footage of these performances. Now accessible online, e.g., http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xfera_john-coltrane-impressions-1961_music The original Fujioka says that this was recorded on the 24th but broadcast on the 26th. The new edition says it was first broadcast on 27 June 1962, 6 months later! There was also an unknown tune done by the rhythm section alone. Other releases include JC(Is)JC112, Heart Note(Sw)HZ002, BS(I)BDLP1514, BS(J)32JDB-199, Toei Video(J)TE M347, Kay Jazz(E)KJ072 (incomplete takes on a video), British(E)VJ447, GL(I)VID JAZZ 5, Videomate VM-726, Video Arts(J)VALJ-3165, Jazz Collection(F)ORO 129, Pioneer LDC(J)PILJ1122 (only 2:35 of Impressions).	The Coltrane Legacy vido has lots of talk by Elvin, and my favorite tunes. Unfortunately these performances aren't up to their usual form, but it's definitely worth a look. Nice footage of Jimmy Garrison from 1963 on it.
