John Coltrane - "A Love Supreme" (1965) (Analologue Productions Ultra Tape 2x reel tape)
Splurged a little for this one, a reel-to-reel all analog release. Sounds fabulous.

@benthos So is the tape made from the original tape masters?
@gravelvoice
From the website:
The original master tape is available but it's not in the best shape. This tape transfer is from a flat tape copy made by Rudy Van Gelder and used for cutting in the U.K. in April of 1965.
This tape was discovered at Abbey Road and had been untouched between 1965 and 2002.
[W]hile we would always opt for the original whenever we can, in this case this copy was the better choice as the tape has incurred less overall wear and sounds much better than the original.
@benthos Very Cool
