What can we say? This, according to most Jazzfolks, is one of two greatest modern jazz albums ever recorded, vying for the 1 spot with Miles Davis Kind of Blue . Our vote goes to Kind of Blue on which John Coltrane figures prominently , but this is as close to absolute perfection as it gets. Modern African-American sensibility meets Divine Cosmic Spirituality and they both play away into that deep blue yonder called Jazz Heaven.

Easily one of the most important records ever made, John Coltrane s A Love Supreme was his pinnacle studio outing that at once compiled all of his innovations from his past, spoke of his current deep spirituality, and also gave a glimpse into the next two and a half years sadly, those would be his last . Recorded at the end of 1964, Trane s classic quartet of Elvin Jones, McCoy Tyner, and Jimmy Garrison stepped into the studio and created one of the most thought-provoking, concise, and technically pleasing albums of their bountiful relationship not to mention his best-selling to date . From the undulatory and classic bassline at the intro to the last breathy notes, Trane is at the peak of his logical yet emotionally varied soloing while the rest of the group is remarkably in tune with Coltrane s spiritual vibe. Composed of four parts, each has a thematic progression leading to an understanding of spirituality through meditation. From the beginning, Acknowledgement is the awakening of sorts that trails off to the famous chanting of the theme at the end, which yields to the second act, Resolution, an amazingly beautiful piece about the fury of dedication to a new path of understanding. Persuance is a search for that understanding, and Psalm is the enlightenment. Although he is at times aggressive and atonal, this isn t Trane at his most adventurous pretty much everything recorded from here on out progressively becomes much more free, and live recordings from this period are extremely spirited , but it certainly is his best attempt at the realization of concept as the spiritual journey is made amazingly clear. A Love Supreme clocks in at just over 30 minutes, but if it had been any longer it could have turned into a laborious listen. As it stands, just enough is conveyed. It is almost impossible to imagine a world without A Love Supreme having been made, and it is equally impossible to imagine any jazz collection without it.

CONDITION:

RECORD

IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight

a WE GRADE THE VINYL AS NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions mostly sleeve scuffs - are barely visible, but are probably inaudible, and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

b The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording

c The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

d The record has a Rudy Van Gelder name, or his initials RVG stamped or hand-etched in the trail-off vinyl dead wax . On SOME Jazz labels Blue Note, Savoy, Regent, Prestige, Impulse, Verve this stamp signifies highly professional masterings either done by - or personally authorized by - the legendary engineer himself.

e Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording
