Alice Coltrane The Ecstatic Music of Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda (Vinyl - Luaka Bop, 2017) ***
Genre: International music
Places I remember: Real Groovy Records (for some substantial money, it has to be said)
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Om Shanti
Gear costume: All the other tracks
Active compensatory factors: A series of devotional chants set to new age style sounds, this is a long way from the progressive jazz format I'm used to from Alice Coltrane.
I had heard a track on a Mojo magazine sampler of recent releases and loved what I heard. It did take a while to buy the vinyl - not sure why new release records are so expensive - what's that about?
And I'm not sure how many plays this will get - especially now I've boxed up all my records and put them into a secure lock up while we head off to England.
Where do they all belong? A one off - although my Buddhist chants CD is a close cousin.
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence - ROBERT FRIPP. Information is not knowledge; knowledge is not wisdom; wisdom is not truth; truth is not beauty; beauty is not love; love is not music; MUSIC IS THE BEST - FRANK ZAPPA. I think we're a little happier when we have a little music in our lives - STEVE JOBS. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe - LAO TZU. Rock and Roll is fire, man. FIRE. - DAVID BRIGGS. Music grips you, gets into your soul - GEORGE MARTIN
