Notes

Released through Rhino Records vinyl only imprint Rhino Vinyl.

Like most Rhino reissues - Rhino pressed both an EU version and a US version [John Coltrane - Coltrane Plays The Blues]. This is the EU pressing.

Judging from the matrix nos, plating was done at Record Technology Incorporated and EU version pressed by Optimal.

Sticker on cover wrap:

"180-Gram RhinoVinyl"

"LPs cut from the original analog masters."
Packages replicated to the finest detail.
Manufactured with more care than ever."

"Lacquers cut by Bernie Grundman"
