Magic on the Sax

There's not much that I can say that someone hasn't already said about Coltrane, so here's all I'm gonna say. Although I had heard his name being dropped by Bono two or three times on Rattle and Hum, and a buddy who dallied in jazz had mentioned him, It wasn't until Spike Lee properly introduced me to Coltrane in Mo' Better Blues that True Love hit. Upon finding it at the Laser's Edge in Homewood, life has been a little bit better.

Also included, below the 1st link, is Coltrane's next best work, "Alabama", an abbreviated version from the Malcolm X soundtrack.









A Love Supreme

"Alabama"

Enjoy!
