John Coltrane's 'Blue World' gets first ever release

An album John Coltrane recorded with his Classic Quartet in 1964, between celebrated 'Crescent' and 'A Love Supreme', will be released for the first time September 27, Exclaim reports. 'Blue World' takes an unfamiliar route for Coltrane, comprising revisions of his earlier work (listen to the title track below). The album was made at the request of Canadian filmmaker Gilles Groulx, who had asked Coltrane to soundtrack his love movie 'Le chat dans le sac', with 10 minutes of the 37-minute session appearing in the film.
