This bespoke club offers members exclusive access to legendary recordings, meticulously reissued on high-fidelity vinyl. Set for February, the first release is a cornerstone of the early Impulse! Records discography, John Coltrane’s Coltrane from 1962, considered by many to be his finest single album.
“This is more than a subscription service; it’s an entryway into the heart of jazz history,” says John Pinder, Vice President of Revenue and Consumer Acquisition for Verve Label Group. “With the Verve Record Club, we’re inviting fans to rediscover these extraordinary recordings in a way that honors their artistry and legacy, with the highest quality sound and presentation.”
“Jazz vinyl collecting has never been more vibrant”, adds Ken Druker, Senior Vice President, Jazz Development of Verve Label Group. “We’re thrilled to bring these classics—and some hidden gems—back to life with an exhaustive attention to detail. It’s an exciting time for jazz fans everywhere.”
The Verve Record Club promises an unparalleled listening experience. Members will receive limited-edition pressings crafted from analog sources and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI, packaged in numbered, tip-on jackets. Each release is limited to only 2,500 copies, making each album in the club an exclusive collector’s item. Additional perks include an annual member-exclusive release, early access to upcoming titles, and unique merchandise.
The club will also offer a deep dive into the vaults of Verve, Impulse!, Mercury, CTI, Decca, MGM and other legendary labels, with future releases featuring Ella Fitzgerald, Ahmad Jamal, Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday, Bill Evans, and more.
