Alice Coltrane - A Monastic Trio - Brand new re-release of Alice's debut solo record. One of her absolute best!

Oh my gosh that sounds amazing. I love Alice. She was a really exemplary example of how jazz can almost become a spiritual exercise. I love the way she incorporates those beautiful, heavenly harp sounds into the music. I'll definitely be checking this out.
And speaking of jazz...
I've listened to this countless times, but I'm reading his autobiography and hearing about how he actually made the record really got me in the mood to listen again with fresh ears. As always, it's incredible. Funky, groovy, and I really only just now appreciate how ground breaking and important it was, and still is. I'll probably be listening to much of his discography in the coming days.
