This version of Crescent comes as a 1xLP.
The vinyl is pressed as a opaque disc. - Crescent is a 1964 studio album by jazz musician John Coltrane, released by Impulse! As A-66. It features his jazz quartet group of McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison and Elvin Jones playing all original Coltrane compositions, with the leader playing tenor saxophone exclusively. It is commonly regarded as the saxophonist's darkest album. Only the brief, infectious medium-up "Bessie's Blues", and a samba-tinged groove in the midsection of the otherwise sedate "Wise One", break the sombre mood."Impulse Blue" sticker on shrinkwrap states:
"The Impulse Reissue Series features:
o Audiophile Remastering
o 180g virgin vinyl
o Original liner notes
o Deluxe Gatefold Packaging"
