ECOMMENDATIONS:
You’ve got to start with A LOVE SUPREME – but I highly recommend doing this ONLY AFTER you’ve looked into his earlier work.
From there, you’ve got to look into the following 3 albums:
TRANSITION
SUN SHIP
FIRST MEDITATIONS
If you’re able to, get a hold of that live version of A LOVE SUPREME. Fortunately, for all of us, ANOTHER live version of A LOVE SUPREME is coming out this October, recorded in October around the time of the “Live In Seattle” album.
If you like what you’ve heard so far, fill in the rest of the gaps with the following:
JOHN COLTRANE QUARTET PLAYS…
DEAR OLD STOCKHOLM
LIVING SPACE
MEDITATIONS
And if you’re going to go the whole hog:
ASCENSION
LIVE IN SEATTLE
OM
If you would like to hear similar spiritually-related recordings, try these artists:
Alice Coltrane – Journey To Satchidananda
Pharaoh Sanders - Karma
