Long the stuff of jazz-world rumour, The Tiberi Tapes, on vinyl 4LP boxset, document John Coltrane and his group performing in New York and Philadelphia during the early 1960s. Musician Frank Tiberi followed Coltrane into clubs, recording the group on a portable tape machine as they pushed jazz into increasingly adventurous territory. The recordings bear the imperfections of their circumstances, but preserve remarkable performances unheard for more than sixty years.
