As I fight with some systems testing, I am enjoying these recent #jazz #vinyl acquisitions:

'The Summoned' by Mama Terra on Acid Jazz records. #Glasgow neo-soul-jazz via #NYC.

'Evenings at the Village Gate' by John #Coltrane and Eric #Dolphy on Impulse! Records. An archive recording, the tapes of which were recently discovered in a New York Public Library collection! 😀 👍

John Coltrane with Eric Dolphy - Evenings at the Village Gate

This recording, made on a single mic hanging from the ceiling during a run of shows at the Village Gate, was unearthed from the New York Public Library recently, and it's really interesting to hear this particular band working out their direction.

Nice package, enlightening liner notes, lucky to have it.

First thing on. May be the only thing on today. Absolutely amazing find.

A newly-discovered John Coltrane / Eric Dolphy recording.

"I think the main thing a musician would like to do is to give a picture to the listener of the many wonderful things he knows of and senses in the universe...That's what music is to me — it's just another way of saying this is a big, beautiful universe we live in, that's been given to us, and here's an example of just how magnificent and encompassing it is." -- John Coltrane
