Planet End is an album by jazz guitarist Larry Coryell that was released in 1975 by Vanguard Records. It was the final recording for Vanguard and reached number 39 on the 1976 Jazz Albums chart. The album consists of tracks recorded at the Spaces and Introducing the Eleventh House sessions.

Reception.

The lively music is very much of the period and this CD is a bit brief (at 34 minutes) but the high-quality of the solos makes this one worth picking up by listeners interested in Larry Coryell’s early period (Scott Yanow/AllMusic).
