gdogus Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Hardly "obsessive," but Trane and I are birthday buddies, so I just spent the weekend re-communing with his music (along with some Springsteen and Ray Charles on the side - also 9/23 dudes). Listened to a range: Some first Miles Quintet - Relaxin' and Cookin' Miles again, Kind of Blue Coltrane, Plays the Blues Coltrane, Africa Brass Coltrane, Meditations Coltrane, Ascension I found myself absorbed in it all, but I was surprised by how much I was enthralled by the later albums I spun - Meditations and Ascension. I've listened to them and admired them a number of times off and on, but somehow they just now clicked for me in a different and more complete way. Time now to revisit some later, stellar spaces, perhaps. Edited September 26, 2016 by gdogus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gheorghe Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Somehow the album that I might spin most, when I wanna hear some later period Coltrane is "At the Village Vaguard AGAIN ! " with both Trane and Pharoah and Alice and Rashied Ali. Somehow that´s the album that appeals most to me from that period, it has a kind of balance in it, the kind of 60´s New Thing I like most, this and some Ornette Stuff from that period "Crisis" and "Ornette at 12".......
