'TRANE

One of the most remarkable records ever put together in the galaxy is Ascension (Impulse AS-95), a monstrous manisfestation led by John Coltrane. This, record transcends artifact (or anything solid), jazz and other concepts we use to control music. Trane is joined by Freddie Hubbard and D&vey Johnson, trumpets; Marion Brown, and John Tchicai; alto saxes; Pharoah Sanders and Archie ShCpp, tenor saxes; McCoy Tyner, piano; Art Davis and Jimmy Garrison, basses; and jElvin Jones, drums. Just from the lineup, it sounds like the crazed dream of a heavy jazz maniac. But it isn’t a crazed dream, it’s real and (this is the remarkable part) available for you-to listen.
