The Essential John Coltrane,” a Target-exclusive limited-edition 2LP, available now.

Probably no tariffs at Target?

First thought was "how do you fit the Essential Coltrane on 2 LP's".  Here are the cuts - all limited to Impulse!, and they actually did a pretty good job on the selections, though everyone will have gripes about missing cuts:

Side A

1. A Love Supreme: Part 1 – Acknowledgement 7:47
2. In A Sentimental Mood (feat. Duke Ellington) 4:16
3. Bessie's Blues 3:32
4. You’re A Weaver Of Dreams 5:34
21:09

2. My One And Only Love (feat. Johnny Hartman) 4:55

Although the labels are all owned by Universal I believe I do think that 'fifties compilation will come out on Craft/Concord.

So Concord is now owned by UMG?

I guess probably not but in Japan the Prestige, Riverside, etc. stuff comes out on Universal I believe. On cdjpaan the "lable/distributor"is listed as UNIVERSAL MUSIC. Maybe it is just distribution but I don't remember seeing Craft or Concord listed on the back catalog reissues.

You’re A Weaver Of Dreams 5:34
 

That one was Mercury, not impulse! And it was on a Cannonball record.

Seems like a very odd choice?
