John Coltrane was one of those few people who I felt had outdone the use of their instrument. During the later years of his life he seemed frustrated probably because the amount of ideas in his mind was too much for a single instrument to handle. Today the word "legend" is thrown around loosely but Coltrane was a true legend and my idol and single handedly changed the way that music is perceived. Peace and Love.
John Coltrane one of the best saxophonist of all time in music. John Coltrane is one of the best musicians of all time in music history. his music was very spiritual and sophisticated
I got into coltrane through an interview from Carlos Santana. I really believe coltrane specifically had a mind of a genius. That ability to create amazing beautiful phrases and melodies.
My favourite thing and Shorter's Deluge takes me back to two special days in my life. I can even remember what kind of vegetable juice i drank that day i fell in love with the tunes.
I disagree witht he annoying Guy at 2:30..... Being fired from Miles DID NOT cause him to stop using..... WE DONT KNOW what caused him to stop... he had a DEEPLY PROFOUND RELIGIOUS experience, that he did not go into detail. other than it was an epiphany... Iwould have LOVED to know what it was being a buddhist i DEEPLY believe in the power of SPIRTUALLITY be it: Christian, Muslim, Jewish, buddhist, hindu or whatever.... THAT is what made him stop.. not being fired from miles....
There's a vocabulary of melodies and chords one can use as a finger print when playing progressive music. I normally play depending on the type of audience and how I spent the pass day. At times I would place my instrument down and just sing a song, or rap spoken word/ poetry, accompanied by a band.
I’ve always appreciated Coltrane… but have noticed many people saying how ‘Love Supreme’ is probably his greatest work and possibly the greatest Jazz album of all time. On more than one occasion people have spoken about this album with Holy regard… In Devine terms, as if it literally helps them understand God. Is there a suggested listening path I should take to properly understand that album? The playing seems extraordinary and sounds great and I definitely appreciate it… but is there here something/s in particular that make that album stand out among his and other great works and possibly the greatest album ever? Is it because of his point in life at that time or his notes to the listener or something sonically that people are really appreciating specific to LS?
No licence fee, no programs about anything like this, Lets see, when was the last ITV documentary about a jazz artist.. ah yes, that's right, NEVER. I agree that this is more about Yentob's fascination with Coltrane than Coltrane's actual life, he also featured himself too much in the three part history of the guitar but it didn't ruin it for me.
He had bad teeth and almost bit his lip off because he never stopped to take the horn out of his mouth with his obsessive compulsive disorder. Experiments with mouthpieces are what horn players do. But like in all things he obsessed more than most.
I can't watch this. The ignorant Narrator and the guy with the glasses have never spent one day of their miserable lives with Coltrane....and YET, they are very quick to pursue Coltrane's drug usage from the beginning....by the way who are these asinine pple. Coltrane's cousin Mary should make a documentary of him herself.....Thank you....
Yentknob is given free reign over every big arts subject on the Bollocks broadcasting cope ration (what used to be the BBC) Why am I rambling on about this cause the BBC is state funded; When I want to see a doc about someone I admire, am interested in I wanna get a feel for the subject not the presenters tax payer sustained self importance.

As a HEAVY METAL MUSICIAN (guitarist)...i find this man ESSenTIAL to MY PLAYING
Oh Miles, YOU ARE SUCH A BAD ASS!! That always makes me laugh every time I hear how he told Coltrane how to stop playing..LOL

Hi . Spirituality has good powers and remedies... Was Coltrane a budhist ?

A preacher on his horn. There is a church of John Coltrane in the Fillmore District of San Francisco.

Read the liner notes to any of his albums and they refer to him as 'Trane. That's what people called him.
.. 13 years later 2021 anyone?
Bendiciones por compartirlo!
i love that little lady, she tells the truth
thanks for posting this - what is this? I would love to see the first part that seems to have gotten chopped off!

This is gold. Please get it to play in sync.
Great!! I agree 100% with you , DATSMY. Who are these people? How did they get access to so much "inside" information?

@funkality
Miles is a OG
He had bad teeth and almost bit his lip off because he never stopped to take the horn out of his mouth with his obsessive compulsive disorder. Experiments with mouthpieces are what horn players do. But like in all things he obsessed more than most.
What happened to the beginning of the video?
It's weird. America got the British Invasion in exchange for Coltrane. Thanks, brits, and you're so very welcome.
Jesus Christ COL TRANE

LOL Classic

taking the 'coltrane' should be compulsary.
It's pronounced COLTRANE. Not "col-TRANE"! I wish the British would learn to speak good English.
