John Coltrane quintet, "My favorite things", Live in Japan, 1966 Live in Japan è un album live del musicista jazz statunitense John Coltrane, comprendente la registrazione dei concerti tenuti nel 1966 in Giappone dal quintetto di Coltrane, composto dalla moglie/pianista Alice, da Pharoah Sanders al sax e al clarinetto basso, dal bassista Jimmy Garrison e dal batterista Rashied Ali. L'album è stato pubblicato in diversi formati nel corso degli anni. Le esibizioni incise sull'album provengono dall'unica tournée in Giappone fatta da Coltrane nel luglio 1966. Il sassofonista si esibì con il suo gruppo in due arene di Tokyo, la "Shinjuku Kosei Nenkin Hall" e la "Sankei Hall", riscuotendo un notevole successo di pubblico. A questo punto della sua carriera, Coltrane era fortemente immerso nello sperimentalismo più avant-garde che si potesse associare ad uno stile di jazz. Sanders, che era un innovatore e pioniere del free jazz, influenzò fortemente il modo di suonare di Coltrane. Le canzoni presenti sull'album sono notevoli per quanto riguarda la durata (la più "breve" dura 25 minuti), per essere strutturate come delle versioni infarcite di estesi assoli "free" da parte di ogni musicista, dove in qualche caso la melodia sparisce del tutto e il tema principale del brano viene solo brevemente accennato se non ignorato del tutto (si ascolti a proposito la torrenziale versione di quasi 1 ora di durata dello standard My Favorite Things presente sull'album). Tracce: Tutti i brani sono opera di John Coltrane eccetto dove indicato. 1.Afro Blue (Mongo Santamaría) - 38:49 2.Peace on Earth - 26:25 3.Crescent - 54:33 4.Leo - 44:49 Pubblicata in precedenza in Concert in Japan 5.My Favorite Things (Richard Rodgers / Oscar Hammerstein II) - 57:19 Formazione: John Coltrane - sassofono soprano, sassofono alto e tenore, clarinetto basso, percussioni Alice Coltrane - pianoforte Pharoah Sanders - sassofono alto e tenore, clarinetto basso, percussioni Jimmy Garrison - contrabbasso Rashied Ali - batteria

He organized at least fifty recording sessions as a leader during his recording career, and appeared as a sideman on many other albums, notably with trumpeter Miles Davis and pianist Thelonious Monk. Miles Dewey Davis III (May 26, 1926 - September 28, 1991) was an American jazz musician, trumpeter, bandleader, and composer.

Marc Antomattei Productions Introduction: This podcast program is from the NPR News show "Weekend Edition Sunday" with host Liane Hansen. It originally aired on Sunday, January 2, 2011. Marc Antomattei Productions takes no credit whatsoever for the production of this program, its copyright purely is that of NPR. It was uploaded and is rebroadcast via YouTube purely for promotion purposes only. Weekend Edition Sunday original article: "John McLaughlin: On Coltrane And Spirituality In Music'" January 2, 2011 Guitarist John McLaughlin never saw saxophonist John Coltrane perform. The jazz icon died in 1967, before McLaughlin had the chance. But Coltrane's historic 1965 album A Love Supreme has inspired every twist and turn of McLaughlin's career since he first heard it. "It took me, actually, a year of listening to that record almost every day to finally hear what [Coltrane] was doing musically," McLaughlin says. "The least I can say is that he was very advanced, as a human being and a musician. "The second thing, and perhaps the more significant, was the poem on the back of the album — the LP, in those days," McLaughlin says. "This record arrived in my hands at a very significant time in my life, when I was starting to ask myself these fundamental questions about life and death, existence — you know, the big questions we all address to ourselves sooner or later. This poem had such a wonderful effect on me. It was so inspiring and encouraging to me as a young seeker at that time, that I knew the music was really, in a more elegant and eloquent way, speaking about what he wrote about. But I couldn't hear it." In an interview with Weekend Edition host Liane Hansen, McLaughlin says that the great achievement of A Love Supreme was to integrate a spiritual dimension into the world of jazz music. Now, the guitarist has recorded an album inspired by his passion for Coltrane's masterwork. It's called To the One, and it was recently nominated for a Grammy in the Best Contemporary Jazz Album category. McLaughlin says he didn't intend to make a Coltrane tribute. But once the music on To the One had been written, he says, it reminded him of his discovery of A Love Supreme in 1965. "About two months following [the composition of the album], I woke up in the middle of the night with the liner notes in my mind, and all the titles of the pieces," McLaughlin says. "I just woke up [with it] all in my mind — very peculiar experience. I woke up and they'd been dictated to me. If you can explain it, I would be very happy to hear it."

John Coltrane (parfois abrégé « Trane ») est un saxophoniste de jazz, compositeur et chef de formation américain, né à Hamlet en Caroline du Nord le 23 septembre 1926 et mort à Long Island, État de New York, le 17 juillet 1967. Il est, après Charlie Parker dans les années 1940 et 1950, considéré comme le saxophoniste le plus révolutionnaire et le plus influent de l'histoire du jazz, meneur du courant avant-gardiste dans les années 1960, et l'un des artistes les plus importants de la musique de la deuxième moitié du XXe siècle. Coltrane a toujours cherché à se dépasser sur tous les plans : technique, en explorant de nouveaux modes d'expression, cherchant de nouvelles sonorités, de nouveaux timbres et de nouvelles façons d'étendre la tessiture et la dynamique du saxophone ; stylistique, parvenant à élargir les horizons du développement thématique et harmonique de cet instrument en combinant l'improvisation à la chaleur du timbre, à la dynamique et au rythme ; personnel en concevant sa musique comme une quête spirituelle.

London Evening Standard 2015-03-17John William Coltrane (September 23, 1926 – July 17, 1967) was an American jazz saxophonist and composer. Working in the bebop and hard bop idioms early in his career, Coltrane helped pioneer the use of modes in jazz and later was at the forefront of free jazz. He organized at least fifty recording sessions as a leader during his recording career, and appeared as a sideman on many other albums, notably with trumpeter Miles Davis and pianist Thelonious Monk.
As his career progressed, Coltrane and his music took on an increasingly spiritual dimension. His second wife was pianist Alice Coltrane, and their son Ravi Coltrane is also a saxophonist. Coltrane influenced innumerable musicians, and remains one of the most significant tenor saxophonists in jazz history. He received many posthumous awards and recognitions, including canonization by the African Orthodox Church as Saint John William Coltrane. In 2007, Coltrane was awarded the Pulitzer Prize Special Citation for his "masterful improvisation, supreme musicianship and iconic centrality to the history of jazz."
There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far, over land and
A little shy and sad of eye, but very wise was he
And then one day, a magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings
This he said to me:
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
The very thought of you makes my heart sing
Like an April breeze on the wings of spring,
And you appear in all your splendor,
My one and only love.
The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms
In the hush of night while you're in my arms.
I feel your lips, so warm and tender,
My one and only love.
The touch of your hand is like heaven,
A heaven that I've never known.
The blush on your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me that you are my own.
You fill my eager heart with such desire.
Ev'ry kiss you give sets my soul on fire.
I give myself in sweet surrender,
Too young to go steady, too young
I hear him (her) say.
He (she) says I'm (we're) not ready
But then why am I (are we) feeling this way?
Too young so he (she) tells me
He (she) says we'll have to wait.
Why wait till it may be too late?
Can't he (she) realize he (she) drive me wild
Is he (she) made of stone?
Must he (she) always treat me (act just) like a child?
Won't he (she) ever own up
I'm (we're) grown up?
Some day he'll (she'll) be sorry
Some day just wait and see
The very thought of you makes my heart sing
Like an April breeze on the wings of spring
And you appear in all your splendor
My one and only love
The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms
In the hush of night while you’re in my arms
I feel your lips so warm and tender
My one and only love
The touch of your hand is like heaven
A heaven that I’ve never known
The blush of your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me that you are my own
You fill my eager heart with such desire
Every kiss you give sets my soul on fire
I give myself in sweet surrender
My one and only love
If I should write a book for you
That brought me fame and fortune too
That book would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you.
And, if I should paint a picture too
That showed the loveliness of you
My art would be, like my heart and me,
Dedicated to you.
To you, because your love is the beacon that lights up my
way.
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just
one heavenly place.
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are.
That star would be, like my heart and me,
Dedicated to you.
To you, because your love is a beacon that lights up my
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just
one heavenly place
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are
That star would be like my heart and me
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favourite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple struddels
Doorbells and sleighbells and schnitzel with noodels
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favourite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snow flakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that turn into springs
These are a few of my favourite things
When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling
I simply remember my favourite things
I used to visit all the very gay places
Those come-what-may places
Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
To get the feel of life from jazz and cocktails
The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
With distingue gay traces that used to be there
You could see where they'd been washed away
By too many through the day, twelve o'clock tales
Then you came along with your siren song
To tempt me to madness
I thought for awhile that your poignant smile
Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me
Ah yes, I was wrong
Again, I was wrong
Life is lonely again and only last year
Everything seemed so sure
Now life is awful again
A trough full of hearts could only be a bore
A week in Paris could ease the bite of it
All I care is to smile in spite of it
I'll forget you, I will while yet you are still
Burning inside my brain romance is mush
Stifling those who strive
So I'll live a lush life in some small dive
And there I'll be
While I rot with the rest of those
They say that falling in love is wonderful
It's wonderful, so they say
And, with a moon up above, it's wonderful
It's wonderful, so they tell me
I can't recall who said it
I know I never read it
I only know they tell me that love is grand
The thing that's known as romance is wonderful, wonderful
In every way, so they say
To leave your house some morning
And, without any warning
You're stopping people, shouting that love is grand
To hold a girl in your arms is wonderful, wonderful
In every way

Come take my hand, you should know me, I've always been in your mind
You know I will be kind, I'll be guiding you
Building your dream has to start now, there's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake, I'll be guiding you
Chorus:
You have to believe we are magic, nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic, don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive, destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive, for you
I'll bring all your dreams alive, for you
From where I stand you are home free, the planets align so rare
There's promise in the air, and I'm guiding you
Through every turn I'll be near you, I'll come anytime you call
I'll catch you when you fall, I'll be guiding you

Magic (Olivia Newton-John)
Come take my hand, you should know me, I've always been in your mind
You know I will be kind, I'll be guiding you
Building your dream has to start now, there's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake, I'll be guiding you
Chorus:
You have to believe we are magic, nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic, don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive, destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive, for you
I'll bring all your dreams alive, for you
From where I stand you are home free, the planets align so rare
There's promise in the air, and I'm guiding you
Through every turn I'll be near you, I'll come anytime you call
I'll catch you when you fall, I'll be guiding you

chorus
The very thought of you makes my heart sing
Like an April breeze on the wings of spring
And you appear in all your splendor
My one and only love
The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms
In the hush of night while you’re in my arms
I feel your lips so warm and tender
My one and only love
The touch of your hand is like heaven
A heaven that I’ve never known
The blush of your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me that you are my own
You fill my eager heart with such desire
Every kiss you give sets my soul on fire
I give myself in sweet surrender
My one and only love
My one and only love
They say that falling in love is wonderful
It's wonderful, so they say
And, with a moon up above, it's wonderful
It's wonderful, so they tell me
I can't recall who said it
I know I never read it
I only know they tell me that love is grand
And
The thing that's known as romance is wonderful, wonderful
In every way, so they say
To leave your house some morning
And, without any warning
You're stopping people, shouting that love is grand
And
To hold a girl in your arms is wonderful, wonderful
In every way
So they say
