Synopsis
Released in 1964, John Coltrane's groundbreaking album A LOVE SUPREME was the culmination of years of experimentation on the part of its composer. The acclaim it received on its release was unprecedented for a jazz album; it was widely admired by a whole spectrum of musicians, from the Byrds' Roger McGuinn to avant-garde composer Terry Riley, who found in its spirituality a reflection of their own personal searches, and, in its revolutionary approach, echoes of the turmoil of the age. Ashley Kahn's eponymous history of the album's recording is a deeply researched and comprehensive study of the artistic, spiritual, and musical motivations behind its creation. It includes a brief biography of Coltrane, invaluable interviews with the late drummer Elvin Jones, perhaps Coltrane's perfect accompanist, and bassist Jimmy Garrison, in addition to a wealth of in-depth track-by-track analysis of the album itself. Kahn's wide-ranging study also encompasses exhaustive overviews of Impulse, the innovative record label the album was recorded for, the recording methods employed by the legendary Rudy Van Gelder, the album's engineer, and its producer Bob Thiele, and contemporary photographs of the session. The perfect primer to a seminal recording, A LOVE SUPREME is a consummate exercise in music appreciation.
