{"product_id":"johncoltranequartetballads","title":"John Coltrane Quartet ‎– Ballads (Acoustic Sounds Series)","description":"\u003cp\u003eJohn Coltrane's immortal Impulse! records, \u003cem\u003eA Love Supreme\u003c\/em\u003e (1964) and \u003cem\u003eBallads\u003c\/em\u003e (1963) both have drawn rave reviews since their original release. A.B. Spellman, former administrator for the National Endowment for the Arts, once described Ballads as \"some of the most sensitive, heartfelt music that any lover ever sang on a horn.\" Put simply, most guys don't play the saxophone like John Coltrane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe intense passionate Coltrane interpretation of standards such as \"All Or Nothing At All,\" \"What's New,\" \"It's Easy To Remember\" and the Sinatra classic \"Nancy (With The Laughing Face)\" are the essence of \u003cem\u003eBallads\u003c\/em\u003e. When asked why attempt such an undertaking, Coltrane replied \"Variety.\" While it may have been a short detour by Trane before he exploded off into the nether regions of jazz music a few years later, it is still a fantastic document of one of the premier jazz groups of the 1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeeking to offer definitive audiophile grade versions of some of the most historic and best jazz records ever recorded, Verve Label Group and Universal Music Enterprises' new audiophile Acoustic Sounds vinyl reissue series utilizes the skills of top mastering engineers and the unsurpassed production craft of Quality Record Pressings.
