VINYL TRIP

The liner notes of John Coletrane's Infinity read: "To perceive again and this time it must be said,. for all who read to know that no matter what, it is all with god. . ." Such a spiritual statement is a perfect introduction to some of Coltrane's rich, swirling, and magical free-form music. Originally I was drawn to this lp (from my fathers collection) by it gorgeous cover art-work, but once I placed the needle to the plate I was overwhelmed by Coletrane's wandering saxophone over Alice Coletrane's lush string arrangements. I wouldn't recommend this album to a casual jazz listener, but This album's enchanting and deeply layered sound is truly amazing!
