New & sealed. 60th Anniversary Limited Edition Deluxe Heavyweight Vinyl Reissue -- INCLUDES SECOND ALBUM of Alternate Takes. IN HANDS - The shrinkwrapped photos shown are actual product and reflect its state and condition.
John Coltrane’s Giant Steps – the influential jazz saxophonist’s debut album with Atlantic Records – continues to astound and inspire listeners 60 years after its release. Presented here as a 180-gram double-LP set with a newly remastered version of the original album plus eight alternate takes. Packaged in a replica of the original sleeve and labels used for the album’s first stereo pressing, also included are rare photos, original liner notes, and new liner notes written by Grammy-winning music historian, Ashley Kahn. Recorded in 1959 at Atlantic Studios in NYC, Giant Steps features Coltrane on tenor saxophone, Paul Chambers on double bass, Tommy Flanagan on piano, and Art Taylor on drums. (It’s extraordinary to note that Coltrane began principal recording sessions for Giant Steps less than two weeks after finishing his work with Miles Davis on Kind of Blue.) Considered a landmark in modern jazz improvisation, Giant Steps has been selected by the Library of Congress for inclusion in the National Recording Registry.
