In 1964, John Coltrane was ready to conjoin his deep interest in religion and philosophy with his manner of making music, both in terms of structure and style.
The result was the landmark album/suite, A Love Supreme, recorded in one day, December 9, 1964. As music critic Ben Ratliff writes, A Love Supreme is “the fulcrum of his career,” and sets the foundation upon which both his past and future works are understood. The greatest album from one of America’s greatest artists.
