So far as I can tell, the Jazzland/Fantasy offering (which is also available on vinyl) is the same personnel, recorded at the club rather than at Carnegie (? or so it seems), containing different selections. The vinyl is pretty cheap. Might be worth getting both, don't you think?
yourmusic.com has the hybrid at the usual price. I don't see a downside!

sorry about being off topic, but I must say I like your Icon SMc
Thanks! It's a mural on what used to be an alternative used record store. (Hey! on-topic again.) There was a chance it would be painted over when Baja Fresh moved in, but wiser heads prevailed and it remains as it was. For those who don't know, the artist is Daniel Johnston: http://www.hihowareyou.com/news2.htm

This disc is so good, my wife actually stopped during a conversation and said, "Hey, that sounds great, who is it?"
That other "new" Coltrane disc is on deck.
Great year for Coltrane fans!
The hybrid SACD is a different recording than the Carnegie Hall disc that was reviewed. Both are very good, but musically I prefer the Carnegie Hall recording; I'm thinking about picking it up on vinyl too.
