"A Love Supreme is a passionate and revealing portrait of the creation of the album, balancing biography, cultural context, and musical analysis. Written with the full cooperation of Coltrane's family, it features the voices of more than a hundred musicians, producers, and witnesses, including the surviving participants of the sessions, drummer Elvin Jones, pianist McCoy Tyner, and engineer Rudy Van Gelder. With unpublished interviews with Coltrane and bassist Jimmy Garrison and scores of never-before-seen photographs, A Love Supreme weaves a rich historical backdrop and examines the questions and myths surrounding an album that, as Joshua Redman says, "doesn't feel like just an overwhelming musical vision, it feels like the vision.""--BOOK JACKET.
