A Love Supreme: The Definitive Coltrane
"I would like to put
out an album with absolutely no notes. Just the titles of the songs and
the personnel.
By this point I don't know what can be said in words about what I'm doing.
Let the music speak for itself."
When John Coltrane made his first appearances with Dinah Washington in 1946, he immediately established himself as the most innovative and talented saxophonist since Charlie Parker. As comfortable leading the likes of Red Garland and Freddie Hubbard as he was as a sideman for Miles Davis and Thelonious Monk, Coltrane's unwavering dedication to excellence and his immense spirituality have become legendary among the ranks of musicians and music lovers for decades.
Through this page, I hope to bring you closer to appreciating the immortal talent and beauty of John Coltrane.
