Booklet, page 18:
Original analog tapes were used for all tracks except LP 2/Side 4 tracks 3 and 4, which by necessity were sourced from digital copies. LP 1 and LP 3 are stereo, LP 2 is mono. Dropouts and other minor tape anomalies that may be heard are a by-product of the historical nature of his material, some of which derives from Coltrane’s personal collection, and were not corrected or otherwise manipulated.
