Alice Coltrane
Ptah, The El Daoud
Impulse! / Verve
Stone classic Alice. Turiya And Ramakrishna is a gorgeous piano blues; otherwise she is joined by Joe Henderson and Pharoah Sanders, Ron Carter and Ben Riley.
Her debut as leader, a year after John’s death, with Pharoah Sanders, Jimmy Garrison, Ben Riley and Rashied Ali steeply conjuring an ecstatic blend of JC and Bud Powell, blues, gospel and free jazz, trained unflinchingly on Nature and Truth, witches and devils, the Mystical and the Divine.
Tremendous music — deeply rooted, rawly searching, still thrillingly uplifting.
‘Verve By Request.’
Trying out new ideas (including Stravinsky) after leaving Impulse! in 1975, by turns deploying Wurlitzer, Rhodes and harp, and Charlie Haden and Ben Riley, percussionists, and an orchestra.
Water in particular is stunning, with JH chasing the devil across the Sahara like an elemental fury, flashing dubwise effects; alongside the magnificent, dread droning and piping of Alice Coltrane , r-r-r-rough Charlie Haden, and Michael White on tablas and percussion.
Totally killer, no-holds-barred… proper World Music… a must.
With Alice Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Gary Bartz, Ron Carter, Elvin Jones.
