And while it's true that one can definitely hear her late husband's influence on this music, she wouldn't have had it any other way. Pharoah Sanders' playing on the title cut, \"Shiva-Loka,\" and \"Isis and Osiris\" (which also features the Vishnu Wood on oud and Charlie Haden on bass) is gloriously restrained and melodic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColtrane's harp playing, too, is an element of tonal expansion as much as it is a modal and melodic device. With a tamboura player, Cecil McBee on bass, Rashied Ali on drums, and Majid Shabazz on bells and tambourine, tracks such as \"Stopover Bombay\" and the D-minor, modally drenched \"Something About John Coltrane\" become an exercise in truly Eastern blues improvisation. Sanders plays soprano exclusively, and the interplay between it and Coltrane's piano and harp is mesmerizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the drone factor supplied either by the tamboura or the oud, the elongation of line and extended duration of intervallic exploration is wondrous. The depths to which these blues are played reveal their roots in African antiquity more fully than any jazz or blues music on record, a tenet that exists today, decades after the fact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne last note, the \"Isis and Osiris\" track, which was recorded live at the Village Gate, features some of the most intense bass and drum interplay -- as it exists between Haden and Ali -- in the history of vanguard jazz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTruly, this is a remarkable album, and necessary for anyone interested in the development of modal and experimental jazz. It's also remarkably accessible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic Review by Thom Jurek\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eTracklisting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJourney In Satchidananda\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShiva-Loka\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStopover Bombay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomething About John Coltrane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIsis And Osiris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"LPs New","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48655654387905,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/AliceColtraneFeaturingPharoahSanders_JourneyInSatchidananda.jpg?v=1726538489","url":"https:\/\/hathillrecords.com.au\/products\/alice-coltrane-featuring-pharoah-sanders-journey-in-satchidananda-vinyl-lp","provider":"Hat Hill Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
