Why it stays in rotation

I didn’t know this album very well when I found it in Lisbon. It was actually the only Coltrane record in the shop, so I took a chance on it. It took a few listens to click, but now I play it quite a lot when I am coding or reading. Finding out that the whole session was recorded in one day made me appreciate it even more.
