| | John Coltrane Living Space CD John Coltrane Discography of CDs
Contains four tracks that originally appeared on the posthumous rarities compilation FEELIN' GOOD along with the previously unreleased "The Last Blues."
Digitally remastered using 20-bit technology by Eric Labson (MCA Music Media Studios).
These are sides recorded during a brief summer lull in the life of Trane's famed quartet, the majority of them issued previously on the albums INFINITY and FEELIN' GOOD. The album has the spacious intensity of Trane's latter-day compositions that jar, probe, and bend the horizontal and vertical dimensions of his earlier music while finding stability in the seasoned vigor of the band. "Living Space" appears without strings here, its melody overdubbed by Trane, in unison, on both tenor and soprano. It has the searching, mysterious quality of a mantra unlocking unseen doors, and recalls the waxing fire of A LOVE SUPREME'S "Resolution." "Untitled 90320" offers perhaps the most free environment of the five cuts, with McCoy hanging chordal fragments in thin air as Elvin sympathizes energetically with Trane's excursions into unexplored harmonic vistas. Think four dimensions or more.
This is part of Impulse's The New Thing series.

Purchase Living Space CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | John Coltrane First Meditations CD (1965)
Living Space album
 $10.65 
A studio precursor to the collective improvisations of MEDITATIONS, this suite, recorded a month before LIVE IN SEATTLE, represents the final shining examples of the interplay, sensitivity and excitement of the John Coltrane Quartet. On MEDITATIONS Trane would add drummer Rashied Ali and tenor saxophonist Pharaoh Sanders to the mix, creating a sonic vortex that represented powerful new directions. Soon after, both Tyner and Jones felt it was time to move on.
Unlike the cosmic explorations of SUN SHIP, FIRST MEDITATIONS displays the serene side of Coltrane's spiritual quest--the reflection ...

Living Space CD music
$12.35
DEAR OLD STOCKHOLM gathers together studio sessions the Coltrane Quartet made with the great drummer Roy Haynes who was filling in for the remarkable Elvin Jones. "I always tried to get him when Elvin Jones wasn't able to make it," Coltrane explained. The resulting studio sessions, now gathered together on one disc for the first time, paint an intriguing sonic alternative to the great Coltrane Quartet of the '60s.
Where Elvin Jones' is all rolling thunder and elemental energy, Haynes' ...
| | John Coltrane Transition CD (1965)
Living Space music CDs
$9.65  
Digitally remastered by Robert Stoughton (MCA Music Media Studios).
This posthumous release, recorded in June of 1965, is a perfect point upon which to delineate the TRANSITION between Coltrane quartet's golden age, and the book of revelations that followed. TRANSITION finds them on the stylistic fault line between the spiritual outreach of A LOVE SUPREME and the turbulent explorations of SUN SHIP. These performances are plenty intense, yet traditional matters of tune, tempo, tonality and time are still apparent, whereas two months later (SUN SHIP) the band was immersed ...
| | John Coltrane Expression CD (1967)
Living Space songs
$12.15
Principally recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey on February 15 and March 7, 1967. Includes liner notes by Nat Hentoff.
John Coltrane's work with Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis and Thelonious Monk, his roots in Charlie Parker and Dexter Gordon, and his mastery of traditional harmony granted him a musical license that other experimentalists such as Cecil Taylor and Ornette Coleman never enjoyed. They were always viewed as musical outsiders, whereas Coltrane's pedigree was beyond reproach. Which is why John Coltrane's death on July 17, 1967, a few months shy of his 41st birthday, was such a devastating shock ...
| | John Coltrane Live In Seattle CDs (1965)
Living Space album
$18.59 
Recorded live at The Penthouse, Seattle, Washington on September 30, 1965. Includes liner notes by David Wild.
By the fall of 1965, when LIVE IN SEATTLE was recorded, John Coltrane was in the middle of a highly experimental period, searching for new means of expression, having seemingly exhausted his bebop and post-modern resources. Such niceties as tune, time and tempo were optional features on these free-form search parties. The freedom first hinted at that summer (TRANSITION and SUN SHIP) was now the primary focus of the music.
The music had become a reflection of John Coltrane's spiritual quest, as well as his study of non-western religions and the ritualistic music that often accompanied these ...
