You have to wonder — what was the imperative for making new cover art? 

[Harbour]

There’s an interesting interview with Ravi Coltrane in the new Mojo where he talks about this release and also that there are tons more recordings still in the archive and the next thing to come out this autumn is another John Coltrane Quartet live album recorded in 1965 the same week as Live in Seattle!

[jazzbo]

Wow. Thanks for the headsup.

Issue 333 with Amy Whinehouse on the cover?

Yup, tried to take a photo but keeps saying file is too big for here

Listening to Turiya Sings, as Ravi Coltrane explains in the notes, this is not the same as the cassette release. This is simply the raw tape of Alice Coltrane on Wurlitzer organ and vocals, without the additions/orchestrations which were on the original release..

[JSngry]

oh...that's good to know, then. not looking for a duplication!

I wonder where the date was — still the Penthouse? I also wonder if it's this broadcast:

Even if it is, I'd still go for an authorized version.

I got this the other day. Mainly for this interview, but also for the article on the 50th of Sticky Fingers (this and Exile on Main Street and also Beggars Banquet are the Stones' favorite for me) and the cover feature, Amy Winehouse.

Has this been posted before? Fantastic footage!

[mikeweil]

Oh yeah!

[Late]

Dig Alice's Jaguar! (Is that Ravi in the back seat?)

Wonderful news! Definitely read about this concert before and have long been curious.

[mjazzg]

That's great news, instant purchase. I just read this which suggests there may be more releases to come, hope so

"in 2024 they’ve partnered with The John & Alice Coltrane Home to launch the “Year of Alice;” described as a “year-long celebration of Alice Coltrane’s profound work.” They’re kicking things off with Alice Coltrane – The Carnegie Hall Concert

[JSngry]

Not too long ago, this bootleg got released, very light on content!

I'll get it.

[T.D.]

Me too, subject to minimal due diligence / research. 😉

[felser]

I've heard the "Africa" cut, and it's fantastic IIRC.  I'm in for the CD set, and so glad it's getting released. 

[Pim]

Nice. Definitely interested and glad I did not go for the bootleg.

I never but bootlegs and hardly own an unauthorized release but must admit I fell for the Alice Coltrane Berkeley Community Theatre release and ordere a copy from fnac.fr. I have a feeling they are not going to deliver as planned shipping time is somewhere in april... and it's not in print.  Its an amazing record that deserves an official release. 

[colinmce]

I hope they do do an official release of the Berkeley concert, it's fantastic.
