After recording his landmark album A Love Supreme in 1964, John Coltrane only played it in concert on one occasion, during the 1965 Antibes Jazz Festival. The version of this European radio broadcast heard on this Black Label CD is obsolete for several reasons. First of all, it is edited compared to other versions issued on various bootleg labels and it also has no additional bonus material, like "Impressions" from the same concert, or "Naima" from the following day, as do some editions. Finally, this sole rendition of A Love Supreme in concert was beautifully remastered and issued in complete form by Impulse in 2002 on A Love Supreme Deluxe Edition. Coltrane and his musicians obviously have to take some liberties with this demanding work, but the results are worth hearing. It's just better to invest in a complete recording, so bypass this substandard imitation.
