Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda ‎– The Ecstatic Music Of Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda



In the 1980s and 1990s Alice Coltrane recorded a number of private tapes playing Vedic devotional songs from the ashram she had founded in LA and this cd compiles some of these tracks. I can't say it's my cup of tea but historically it is very interesting. 2017 cd on Luaka Bop.

Alice Coltrane - Lord of Lords



Amazing 1972 sky-reaching orchestral modal music with Alice Coltrane on piano, organ and harp, Charlie Haden on bass and Ben Riley on drums, along with a 16-piece string orchestra. The organ on the last track "Going Home," an old gospel song, sounds like a mix between drone and blues, while her interpretation of Stravinsky's "Firebird" is otherwordly. Ripped from the 2011 Impulse! cd which also included the album Universal Consciousness.
