Alice Coltrane

Huntington Ashram Monastery

Order now!

Jazz great Alice Coltrane released her second studio album Huntington Ashram Monastery in 1969. She took the lead with her famous harp playing, as well as adding piano next to Ron Carter's bass and Rashied Ali's drums, and the one and only Pharoah Sanders on flute, bass clarinet and tenor sax. That simple set up somehow managed to give rise to gorgeously layered, sunny, emotive tracks that reach for the sun and bring real enlightenment along the way. The music is something of a break from her previous styles which had, for obvious reasons ,been heavily indebted to her late husband John Coltrane. As such this record marked the start of Coltrane becoming a revered artist in her own right.
