'TRANE
One of the most remarkable records ever put together in the galaxy is Ascension (Impulse AS-95), a monstrous manifestation led by John Coltrane. This, record transcends artifact (or anything solid), jazz and other concepts we use to control music.
One of the most remarkable records ever put together in the galaxy is Ascension (Impulse AS-95), a monstrous manifestation led by John Coltrane. This, record transcends artifact (or anything solid), jazz and other concepts we use to control music. Trane is joined by Freddie Hubbard and Dewey Johnson, trumpets; Marion Brown, and John Tchicai; alto saxes; Pharoah Sanders and Archie Shepp, tenor saxes; McCoy Tyner, piano; Art Davis and Jimmy Garrison, basses; and Elvin Jones, drums. Just from the lineup, it sounds like the crazed dream of a heavy jazz maniac. But it isn’t a crazed dream, it’s real and (this is the remarkable part) available for you-to listen.
