Eugene Lee: Meditations
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Jazz musicians have showed a sporadic enthusiasm for meditation: experiments by John Coltrane (and Alice Coltrane), Pharoah Sanders and Keith Jarrett spring to mind, as does the clarinetist Tony Scott's quixotic Music for Zen Meditation (Verve, 1964) The music on these records focuses either on the nirvana-like state to which meditation practitioners could aspire ...

Alice Coltrane: The Impulse Story
by Chris May
Alice Coltrane has always had a raw deal from the jazz world. Either patronised or dismissed out of hand, she's suffered the double whammy of one, being a woman in what (until very recently) was overwhelmingly a man's world, and two, being John Coltrane's widow--and therefore, by some strange logic, not a serious artist in her ...

That would imply the expectation that such a return would, one day, be made--and since Coltrane withdrew ...
Alice Coltrane: Translinear Light
by John Kelman
At its best, music is a reflection of who we are, where we've been and where we're going.

While some artists are concerned with the mechanics of music, the logic of how ...

Strickland) launched into the only reasonable song they could have chosen for the evening, if one that ...
