Around the same time ('70s) Bob Porter issued 2 lps on his Phoenix label by Bill Harris and Charlie Ventura.
This stuff is from the Three Deuces in April of '47. The pianist is Ralph Burns and Dave Tough is on drums.
After the KOB book I received a call from Ashley Kahn telling me he was doing the "Love Supreme" book and he had a couple of questions for me (since I'd actually heard Coltrane in person ). I said "Of course you are".
Months later when I had the opportunity to shake his hand, he hesitated and went away.
I spoke with Scott Wenzel from Mosaic in late June and he said that Mosaic will be releasing it on vinyl.

For really good vinyl sound, this will have to be a 2 lp set. 51+ minutes is short for that at current vinyl costs.
I'm afraid of the "masterpiece" label given to a number of recordings. ALS and KOB are great records praised beyond their siblings in comparison with a bunch of stuff "nobody" knows. It is the news/promotion game and we may like some of it but it is still "fluff".
Can't wait to discover the next book by Ashley to discover what to bow down to next.
Can't wait 'til he decides on the Cecil Taylor recording to exploit.
My first copy of Blue Note 7 46817 2 contained the wrong music on the disc - some really bad pseudo-classical crap. I hope no newbies got this one and swore off LeMo forever.
Fans of Nine To Get Ready and Song for my sister should check out The Bad Guys with Wadada Leo Smith on board. This is a concert in Italy from July, 2000.
