Trane in space..........2007-02-20

Well titled album, as it is out there. This is not your standard jazz album. Takes real attentive listening to understand the overall spatial concepts of each song. I've only listened to it a couple times and still feel like I don't have a handle on everything. So far, it sounds great...coltrane is a genius.

coltrane's first and only duet.......2005-11-19

This album was recorded in 1967 the same year of his death but wasn't realeased until 1974. On this album Coltrane did a duet with drummer Rashied Ali who was in his band at the time. The original tracks are jupiter,saturn,mars,and venus plus two bonus tracks jupiter variation, and Leo.

Interstellar Space.......2005-10-07

Since I'm a big fan of John Coltrane's work, I found this piece, done in 1967 to be an example of his mind.
I fully enjoyed it, and have added it to my collection of his music.

Difficult, Energetic Free Jazz.......2005-06-21

If you are interested in late Coltrane, this is the place to start. Essentially, the album consists of Coltrane going nuts on his saxophone for an hour accompanied by Rashid Ali on drums.
Trane takes simple motives and builds them up to brilliant heights. The album is endlessly listenable, because there are many layers of structure to the improvisations.
Sometimes Trane seems to wander without a tonal centre; other times he clearly uses a tonal centre, sometimes playing things that recall his earlier playing with the "Classic Quartet".
Ali's drumming is fine. It sort of melts into the background, which is just the way it should be. He moves smoothly with Trane's changes in tempo and dynamics. He takes a few relatively short solos.
This album is essential listening for people interested in late Coltrane, free jazz, and modern music in general.

there's not a whole to say here if you've heard it, it's just one of those things kind of like staring into the sun until you can't see much but crazy colors and spots. john coltrane graced this earth for but a short while and this was what he made about five months before his time here was at an end. this isn't really a review.
