Description

Few albums within the canon of popular music have had the influence, resonance, and staying power of John Coltrane’s 1965 classic A Love Supreme-a record that proved jazz was once a fitting medium for religious exploration and for the expression of the sublime. Bringing the similar fresh and tasty manner that characterized his critically acclaimed Kind of Blue: The Making of the Miles Davis Masterpiece, Ashley Kahn tells the tale of the genesis, creation, and aftermath of this classic recording. Featuring interviews with multiple hundred musicians, producers, friends, and members of the family; unpublished interviews with Coltrane and bassist Jimmy Garrison; and scores of never-before-seen photographs, A Love Supreme balances biography, cultural context, and musical analysis in a passionate and revealing portrait.
