EU-only two CD release containing previously unreleased live recordings from the Jazz legend. Backed by Tyner, Workman and Jones, Coltrane decided in mid-1961 to try his luck with his first European tour as a leader. The group which crossed the ocean, however, wasn't a quartet but a quintet, due to the addition of alto sax and flute player Eric Dolphy. The Olympia performances are full of excitement, with Trane and Dolphy exploring their own musical limits, although both of them still exhibit a more melodic style than the one that would characterize them a few years later. They play beautiful arrangements of the tunes, with Dolphy constructing subtle counterpoints to Trane.
