John Coltrane - Interstellar Space 1967 / 20issue

“Interstellar Space” - a fierce free-jazz rumination in four movements - was among John Coltrane’s last studio sessions, recorded the week after the session that produced “Stellar Regions”. 
On Interstellar Space, it felt like he was moving to reconcile free-jazz with spiritual truth. Each of the album's tracks follows a similar structure, with Coltrane sounding bells while drummer Rashied Ali, the sole other performer, lets his drumsticks dance. Coltrane then introduces a melody, frequently shifting, extending, and modulating until it becomes more swirling impressionism than blues-influenced realism.
John Coltrane never stopped pursuing rainbows and contemplating the cosmos in all its raging complexity and infinite wonder.
