========================================================================

In the brief, bright arc that is the career of John Coltrane, 1963 marked a point of
transition between past jazz masterpieces and future work which would transcend the boundaries of the music itself. That year's recorded output shows movement in many directions: a look back at the past, continued examination of a familiar repertoire, exploration of more traditional formats and a look forward at compositions and approaches that would further extend the reach of jazz.

John Coltrane 1963: New Directions collects all of John Coltrane’s 1963 Impulse! recordings in the order in which they were recorded. Released as 5LP and  3CD Box sets including artwork featuring original collages. The box is meant to show the growth in Coltrane’s musical journey in 1963 that ultimately resulted in 1964’s 'Crescent'  and, especially, 'A Love Supreme'. The music is taken from the original albums 'Both Directions at Once: The Lost Album' , 'John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman' , 'Dear Old Stockholm' (released after Coltrane’s death), 'Newport ‘63' and 'Live at Birdland'.

Artist - John Coltrane

We hate being overcharged for postage, it’s money for nothing. So we aim to keep our postage costs fair and transparent. Obviously each item is different, but we’ve done a fair bit of work to establish the correct postage price before posting.  If you feel hard done by, please get in contact.

PACKAGING

We’re record lovers too and hate receiving items marked as ‘Mint’ and turns out to be scuffed or ripped. This can be avoided!

We use top quality packaging materials - so all our items arrive with you, the buyer, in top notch condition.

Please note: all records are removed from their sealed packaging UNLESS REQUESTED OTHERWISE. Once removed from their packaging, they are kept in a 250g polysleeve which ensures protection. The record(s) and its sleeves are then placed between 2 stiffeners. This ensures that everything arrives exactly as you’d want it to.

Remember - we all need to recycle where possible, so with larger orders and larger items, we re-use the packing boxes and protective wrapping received from our suppliers.

Grading based on Record Collector Guidelines:

Mint   The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as sealed or unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent   The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

Very Good   The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good   The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc.

Fair   The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise, it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor   The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad   The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
