A love supreme.....dal vivo!

La registrazione è discreta.

Il grande Coltrane non amava suonare dal vivo il suo capolavoro. Pare si sia esibito un paio di volte. Questa è una di quelle, una rarità. Il vero valore di quest'album è appunto storico, una perla. La qualità audio è discreta, Coltrane leggermente arretrato, ma considerato il valore storico, va bene così. Tutto è godibilissimo. Disco assolutamente da avere per noi "malati" di Trane!

Tutto eccellente

Bellissimo live uno dei pochi di Train, perché non amava esibirsi live, l’unica pecca la registrazione e fatta male, si sente troppo la batteria e il sassofono si sente molto arretrato cioè indietro, suono ben poco equalizzato e poco dinamico.

ottimo e arrivato in condizioni ottime

John Coltrane’s “A Love Supreme” is one of the best in the many jazz masterpieces. The music itself is very solemn, and the whole story is full of spiritual atmosphere. Until now, Coltrane was said to have played “A Love Supreme” only three times, including the original performance. Among them the performance at Antibes has been published by ORTF. In July ’65, the Coltrane quartet ventured the live performance of all parts of this suite in a summer resort in France. Their performance was broadcast live by ORTF. Another performance was made as a fundraising event in a Brooklyn church in Apr., ’66. We’re not sure if this event was recorded. In recent years, Coltrane’s unreleased sound source has been discovered one after another, but “A Love Supreme Live In Seattle” is a discovery that is incomparably important. The sound source discovered this time is said to be a private recording of a local musician, Joe Brazil. Ashley Kahn wrote in the liner notes of this album that more recently, a few archival sleuths caught the scent of the recording. Japanese Coltrane researcher, Yasuhiro Fujioka, said in a Japanese jazz magazine, Jazz Japan, that this excavation was a feat of Zev Feldman of Resonance records.

In Seattle, a total of seven people are challenging this masterpiece, but the free jazz-style avant-garde and powerful performance is completely different from the studio version. This difference is interesting. Coltrane’s tenor sprints beyond the limits of his body. Sometimes it makes a roaring sound like a beast, and it goes crazy. It’s as if he’s aiming for a different world somewhere, transcending the walls of space-time. McCoy Tyner’s lengthy improvisation, which is heard in “Pursuance” played at amazing speed, is the culmination of this set. This is none other than the composer himself’s new interpretation of “A Love Supreme.” Lewis Porters’ explanation of the order of performance is detailed, and it is very useful for checking while listening to this record. According to Yasuhiro Fujioka, the original score of “A Love Supreme” in the Smithsonian Museum was accompanied by the composer’s handwritten annotations. Coltrane described a development plan to strengthen rhythm instruments such as double bass, timbales, and trap drums. Mac Randall wrote on JazzTimes “A Love Supreme” may have been a holy text for Coltrane, yet what made it holy was that it was forever progress. (Nov., ’21)

Ashley Kahn says the “Ascension” recording was a predictor of what Coltrane’s live performance would look like, including this Seattle gig, in the liner notes. “Ascension” was recorded on June 28, ’65. In addition to this tide, the previous day’s recording had a much greater influence on this Seattle gig. The day before the gig, Coltrane and his band members went to Camelot Studio in Seattle in a car driven by Joe Brazil, and they recorded the mysterious “OM” there. The Classic Quartet is augmented by three players : Pharoah Sanders, Joe Brazil, and Donald Garrett. The members of the Seattle gig are very similar when recording “OM”. Only Brazil went to record, and Carlos Ward fill the hole. OM (Ohm), an ancient Indian word in Sanskrit, was introduced to China and was written as Nah-mu, and then to Japan to become Ah-um. Ah-um is the beginning and end of things, and means reincarnation. OM’s chaotic music was in line with the world at the time (intensified Vietnam War, intensified civil rights movement, intensified confrontation between US and Soviet). The Beatles and other musicians were all heading toward the Orient. Those was the era of 1965. The recording seems to be too leaning towards the drums and piano, but it’s not a big deal when listening to music. This discovery is the best of the recent reprint booms and should be called the pinnacle of Coltrane’s sound source excavation.
