Sax virtuoso John Coltrane "Live" at the Village Vanguard (Impulse ! AS-10), was Trane's first official "live" album. Coltrane is joined here on two tunes by the wonderful Eric Dolphy on bass clarinet, plus veteran sidemen McCoy Tyner on piano, Elvin Jones on drums, and Jimmy Garrison & Reggie Workman alternating on bass (both play together on "India", one of three tracks from the same sessions added here as a bonus). Right after the Village dates, Trane and Dolphy would embark on a successful European tour.

Recorded live at the Village Vanguard, New York, November 2 & 3, 1961
