Alice Coltrane with STRINGS - World Galaxy
BACK TO BLACK
Jazz / Contemporary / FusionNew Vinyl LP (GAT) / 18.50 EUR
A magical piece of mosaic which makes up Alice Coltrane’s glorious catalogue, Alice Coltrane With Strings – World Galaxy [1972] is perhaps one of her best known and cherished releases thanks to the wide appeal of her breathtaking reimagining of Rogers-Hammerstein’s evergreen, My Favourite Things and John Coltrane’s A Love Supreme.
Alice’s genuinely stellar contribution to the spirited body of ‘70s jazz fusion, World Galaxy is a life-affirming masterwork displaying her virtuoso harp, piano and tambura drenched in symphonic strings and voiced by Swami Satchidananda, who lends wise words to the eponymous Galaxy In Satchidananda, one of three sublime Galaxy pieces, also including the dramatic vision of Galaxy Around Oldumare and the soaring arrangements of Galaxy In Turiya.
An essential addition to any record collection!
