Planet End is an album by jazz guitarist Larry Coryell that was released in 1975 by Vanguard Records. The album was produced by Daniel Weiss and engineered by David Baker. It was the final recording for Vanguard[1] and reached number 39 on the 1976 Jazz Albums chart.[4] The album consists of tracks recorded in 1974 by the then-current line-up of Coryell's band The Eleventh House (before Danny Trifan was replaced by John Lee on bass); plus two outtakes from the March 1969 sessions that produced the 1970 album, Spaces.
