In the 60's and 70's if you were deep into jazz, you were deep into Impulse! Records.
Impulse! Records is an American based jazz record label, originally launched in 1960 by Creed Taylor as a subsidiary of ABC-Paramount Records in New York City. Most Impulse! albums were produced by Bob Thiele who joined the company after Taylor left to head Verve Records, assisted by the sound engineer, Rudy Van Gelder. It was apparently John Coltrane who insisted that Taylor bring Van Gelder into the fold; Coltrane was Impulse!'s first major signing and the label came to be known in retrospect as "the house that Trane built" Join host Austin Space for a review of the history and the artists involved with the Impulse label.
