Elvis Presley's first recording was made in 1953 when he walked into Sun Records at age 18, and paid $4 to "record a song for his mom's birthday" (who didn't own a record player). He played "My Happiness", and then left the only copy at a friends house, who kept it until it was auctioned in 2015 for $300,000.

Description
To mark the 65th anniversary of John Coltrane's legendary recording, Blue Train will be released as part of Blue Note's acclaimed Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series: a 1-LP mono pressing of the original album.

On September 15, 1957, John Coltrane went into Rudy Van Gelder's living room studio in Hackensack, New Jersey and recorded his first great masterpiece: Blue Train.

It would be the legendary saxophonist's sole album as a leader for Blue Note, a locomotive five-track album fueled by the bluesy title track that featured a dynamic six-piece band with Lee Morgan on trumpet, Curtis Fuller on trombone, Kenny Drew on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Philly Joe Jones on drums.

Both Tone Poet Vinyl Editions were produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in deluxe gatefold tip-on jackets.


Mastered Directly from the Original Analog Master Tapes!
