I saw him with Tyner & Jones in The Village Vanguard in 1971. When he played this I felt like I was listening to music from another place. This is a spiritual experience.
I don't know who it was they saw in 1971. John Coltrane died in the Huntingdon Hospital in New York on 17th June 1967. He was nearing his 41st birthday at the time of his passing.
Brilliant. I've been listening to this song for around 30 years now and I STILL can barely wrap my mind around it. A true work of art and amazement. There are a few songs that can tell the story of a genre and that that is Jazz can be heard in its full versatile power through this piece. I truly believe everyone should sit and really listen to this song at least once in their lives!
Don't try to "wrap your mind around it" Forget about all that & try to just feel what it does to you instead. Try to feel it instead of "understanding" it. Something deeper than your mind already understands everything or you wouldn't even bother to listen to this ;-)
This classic is among my select group of songs in different genres of music, that ultimately shape my style of playing which helped me to have a blessed career...When I was young, would listen to any great piece of music that I could get my hands on...So glad I did.
Recorded in 1964, the title track from the album of thesame name, it was recorded in one session with a quartet of pianist, McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison & Elvin Jones
My dad used to listen to Coltrane and all the other great jazz musicians of the past. I used to try to sing skat when Ella Fitzgerald was on the record player! In the 60's.
Common’s Book “Let Love Have The Last Word” Brought Me Here ... And Just A Few Seconds In , I’m Glad It Did . This Is So Peaceful 😫 I’m Constantly Looking For Positive Music I Can Just Get Lost In My Thoughts Listening Too ( Especially Now That I’m Pregnant And Cautious About What Baby Hears 🙈 ) This Is Perfect !
Congrats. You are going to have one cool baby. I've always loved Wes Montgomery and his huge guitar. Bootsie Barnes, Joe Wilder, Miles Davis, Dave Brubeck, Charles Mingus, Percy Heath, Thelonious Monk, Art Blakey, Charlie Parker, Herbie Hancock and Oscar Peterson are all just brilliant and there are so many, many more.
1990's Mo' Better Blues by Spike Lee introduced me to the beauty of Coltrane, but today in the park walking my dogs in the BX, there's this older guy who hangs out there playing Jimmy Castor/Last Poets...today he was playing A Love Supreme: and what a way to start the Day/meditate on the eternal sent from heaven through the African American culture/experience/artist...giving thanks and praise
I have an affinity for jazz, but there is such a myriad of forms, and interpretations, that I feel lost most of the time, trying to understand what I am hearing. I am really a Blues fan and good jazz riffs backing a Blues tune is amazing. Oddly I was at a friends private home party, here in Metro Atlanta, and was one of a few white folks there and when a few of us (black and white) got into a nice conversation on music, the cross overs between, Rock, Jazz, Country, and sometimes there appears to be construction work going to meld various forms into one package (sort of like the Allman Brothers early jams, and with most of them having left this earth, It is a mystery how they could have done this to such positive critiques. Anyway, one of the 40-50+ year old African American, Black fellows ask me what my favorite overall music form was, and I replied Mostly Blues with a little jazz and rock mixed in. For some reason this torched off the Black Fellows, temper, and he then said I must be a racist trying to keep the Black mans music down. Go figure that. Musical taste have nothing to do with racism, and Blues were the Black mans music, even before Jazz. I have such honor and love of the creators of these sounds, and am quite lost as to how being a Blues fan, could even be catorgorized, as any thing other than just good sounds generated from some hard times. I grew up a GI Army Brat, and then served 30 years myself in the USAF, and have been exposed to nearly every music form, including John Coltrane, but for me nothing brings a smile of content to my weary face like hearing a roots Blues tune mean’t to do just that! (Hard luck song making you feel good). Amen...
Too Tall Jim From GA. Just try to be understanding of folks and it sounds like you are, we’re all under great pressure today even those of us who love humanity....and black folks just never seem to get their due no matter what especially in art/music, so the suggestion is to be as clear as you can in expressing that you know black people are the root of the American musical experience (after all it all comes from the blues, that Mississippi Delta)....
Michelle Savarese. Yes indeed and thank you for noticing my comment. Sadly nowadays it seems easier to toss some thing or someone into a judgeable category, just because of an opinion difference on music, art and etc. I was a really big fan of late 1960’s Soul music, and the soul music related to what many white southerners called Beach music, like Ben E. King, Jackie Wilson and others. The sounds of the Carolina Beach scene, not the California beach scene, which was completely different. I have always loved New Orleans, Big Easy themed music, which the Neville family was instrumental in moving to the front. Well basically, I have always liked it all, but I can’t quite put my arms around Rap. I am OK with that, and appreciate the poetic license Rappers take, just not the delivery. I think I will shut down my comment threads for now and hit the rack. Y’all take care, Peace and GOD BLESS. Jim
If you are a hip hop head and a lover of golden age 90's boom bap hip hop, when this song gets to 6 45 after The Love Supreme chants. This is hip hop, this feels like a breakdown on a hip hop cut done by Premier or Pete Rock. That breakdown is so DOPE
One of the greatest. John can be ranked with Coleman Hawkins , Charlie Parker , Cannonball Adderley and Lester Young among sax players. He is of the Coleman school of sax playing: the big sound
Jazz is for everyone who has the heart, intelligence to appreciate this wonderful musical art. Improvisation baby. John a classical Jazz giant! Jazz truly was created by Black American Jazz giants like Mr. Coltrane. Outstanding!! This is REAL JAZZ!
A música sem comentários. Especial! Gostaria de chamar atenção de como as fotos de Coltrane e Davis são maravilhosas. Se alguém souber o nome do fotógrafo mais comum aos dois deixe aqui. Muito bom! Cruz-maltino RJ.
Much of these Impulses, which don't belong to anybody but to ALL, are faint these days of extreme contentiousness and seemed to flourish more in those naive times of the late 60's of which this music is a product of.
One of the most important albums of all time...
I saw him with Tyner & Jones in The Village Vanguard in 1971. When he played this I felt like I was listening to music from another place. This is a spiritual experience.
Anyone who saw Coltrane in 1971 had a Rich life!
No, you didn't.
I heard him too at the Village Vanguard. Awesome. Spiritual is a good way to put it,
I don't know who it was they saw in 1971. John Coltrane died in the Huntingdon Hospital in New York on 17th June 1967. He was nearing his 41st birthday at the time of his passing.
He died in 1967 though?

Facts🌠
Doing that right now 😁
Same here......still blows me out of the water.
.
One of the greatest and innovative jazz quartets in history.
Cornell West keeps name dropping this, so I had to come see! Mmmm Nice!
Dr. West brought me here too.
Sameeee😅😅
Lmao here for the same reason. He mentioned it again today.
Same 😂😂
Yes, he does !
RIP McCoy Tyner long time Coltrane pianist
i cant believe it took me 24 years to understand the beauty of jazz
I was thinking the same thing right now
Bryan Quesada
so LATE😆
i was listening when i was in
elementaly school😆
Bryan Quesada can you explain it?
Welcome to the club Bro. Peace.
same here
This is a rare instance when the saxophone plays Coltrane. A masterpiece. Stands the test of time...a universal tone.
A 'universal tone' - I like that!
This classic is among my select group of songs in different genres of music, that ultimately shape my style of playing which helped me to have a blessed career...When I was young, would listen to any great piece of music that I could get my hands on...So glad I did.
Mo Betta Blues was the first time I heard this never stopped 👏🏾😊
yes sir....
Probably the best album ever
God makes his presence felt on this album.
Amen
The Creator within Mr Coltrane make its presence felt. Ase!!
The ending to Mo' better blues brought me here and 30 years later I'm still here
Recorded in 1964, the title track from the album of thesame name, it was recorded in one session with a quartet of pianist, McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison & Elvin Jones
One of the most important albums in my life
I went to Trane's packed funeral in NYC and they played A Love Supreme from the balcony. A hushed silence.
My dad used to listen to Coltrane and all the other great jazz musicians of the past. I used to try to sing skat when Ella Fitzgerald was on the record player! In the 60's.
One of the all time heavyweights, loved by most, misunderstood by others.
im always in another world when i listen to this...jazz is definately not for the faint hearted...simply a piece of magic
"jazz is definately not for the faint hearted", well said!!!

Congrats. You are going to have one cool baby. I've always loved Wes Montgomery and his huge guitar.

@@tootalljimfromga.2390 Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
A Musical Genius!
Yesterday was John Coltrane Birthday and this is one of my favorite Jams.
John Coltrane's ability to play so smoothly and naturally is something not so easy to do on saxophone, this is true mastery on so many levels.
Thank You Lord. Thank You John.

Drums, sax, trumpets, piano, bass, oh my!
Lifting, insightful, a liberating lesson for all--a love supreme!
Brilliant Artist 💜

Masterpiece.
Simply amazing!!
Wow... Che meraviglia.
Em estado de êxtase eu repito A LOVE SUPREME A LOVE SUPREME A LOVE SUPREME , certamente uma invocação divina! Muito mais do que uma simples música!
One of the greatest. John can be ranked with Coleman Hawkins , Charlie Parker , Cannonball Adderley and Lester Young among sax players. He is of the Coleman school of sax playing: the
big sound
Eh, he is in the Coleman school for sound maybe, but his lyricism and style is much more Pres influenced, at least to me.
Hawkins died penniless. So sad.
