John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman - S/T LP (Audiophile, 180g, Gatefold)

John Coltrane And Johnny Hartman, released by Impulse! Records in 1963, was recorded on March 7, 1963 at the Van Gelder Studio. Coltrane and Hartman had decided on 10 songs for the album, but en route to the studio they heard Nat King Cole on the radio performing "Lush Life", and Hartman immediately decided that song had to be included on their record. The album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2013.
