[Pre Order] John Coltrane Quartet - Ballads - Verve Essential Vinyl Series LP *

Release Date: October 9, 2026

Coltrane's 1963 standards session with the classic quartet, in the Verve Essential Vinyl Series.

John Coltrane's time with Impulse! was highlighted by consciousness-altering original albums like A Love Supreme and Ascension. But 1963's Ballads proved Trane could make any repertoire his own, even time-worn standards interpreted in the studio with his burgeoning classic quartet of pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison and drummer Elvin Jones. Working largely from minimal rehearsals and stunning single takes, beloved numbers like "All or Nothing At All," "It's Easy to Remember" and "What's New?" are infused with an energy that makes these songs feel brand new.
