Coltrane, John. (1926–1967). Live at Birdland - SIGNED LP.
Signed LP from the saxophonist, band leader, and composer whose brilliant improvisatory skills and experimental spirit made him one of the most influential and highly regarded musicians in the history of jazz. He has signed and inscribed his album Live at Birdland inside the gatefold in blue ballpoint, “John Coltrane, To ‘Tee,’ Thanks.” In very good condition, with tape stains over signature (tape no longer present) and paper loss to hinge. The record is included.

Despite its title, only the first three tracks of the 1964 album Live at Birdland were recorded live at the Birdland club; the rest are studio tracks. Among them is "Alabama", a tribute to four children killed in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing, an attack at a Birmingham, Alabama church by white supremacists. The album also features a live recording of "I Want to Talk About You", a song Coltrane had recorded on his 1958 album Soultrane, this time with an extended cadenza.
