Recorded in 1961 and issued as part of the rush towards the leader’s most adventurous period, it expands beyond hard bop discipline into broad, searching pieces such as Africa, Greensleeves and Blues Minor. The album is especially notable for its striking orchestral writing, which frames Coltrane’s tenor with unusual colour and scale while preserving the intensity of his quartet approach. Widely regarded as one of the key bridges between hard bop and the avant-garde, it helped define Coltrane’s restless artistic trajectory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/the-john-coltrane-quartet-vinyl-records\"\u003eThe John Coltrane Quartet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Impulse! – IL-30700\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album, Mono\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1961\"\u003e1961\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eJazz\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/free-jazz\"\u003eFree Jazz\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/hard-bop\"\u003eHard Bop\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/modal\"\u003eModal\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA Africa\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+John+Coltrane+Quartet+Greensleeves\"\u003eGreensleeves\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+John+Coltrane+Quartet+Blues+Minor\"\u003eBlues Minor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Impulse!","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44459795251265,"sku":"7767314","price":130.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/NTktMjY3MC5qcGVn.jpg?v=1787346695","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/the-john-coltrane-quartet-africa-brass-380570","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
