More confusion, but pretty well documented on Impulse IZ9361/2 "The Mastery of John Coltrane/ Vol. IV: Trane's Modes", and now by David Wild on Impulse! IMPD4-232 and in the Coltrane Reference. Other releases from these dates are Impulse AS-10, "Live at the Village Vanguard", Impulse A-42, "Impressions", and Impulse AS-9325/2, "The Other Village Vanguard Tapes". Alternate takes (from November 2) of India and Spiritual appear on a Coltrane compilation MCAD-5541. They were released in Japan as a 5 CD set packaged into 3 sets (MCA/Impulse MVCI-23001/5).

Multiple performances of these pieces were recorded, along with others in which Eric didn't play. Red Planet was written by Eric, but misattributed to Coltrane and often called Miles' Mode. Discussion has determined that Bushell played english horn rather than oboe, and suggests that Abdul-Malik played something other than oud, perhaps a small tamboura. The 18:32 Chasin' the Trane may be from another date and place, and is unissued. |
