Recording of the Week, Alice Coltrane - The Carnegie Hall Concert

12th April 2024

Only previously released in unofficial capacities, this definitive recording of a 1971 benefit concert features an all-star lineup of spiritual jazz heroes.

Kicking off what will be an Alice Coltrane year with more releases to come in the next 12 months, is a previously unreleased, killer live recording from 1971. Recorded live, by Impulse! at a charity gala given at Carnegie Hall for the benefit of the Integral Yoga Institute in 1971, this incredible set never saw commercial release until now. The gala concert was one of two halves with the first two transcendental tunes by Alice taken from the album she had just released on Impulse! and then two explosive tunes by her late husband John Coltrane. Naturally, à la Coltrane/Dolphy at the Gate, which picked up the recent Grammy nomination for Best Liner Notes, the package includes some knockout editorial, with essays by Lauren Du Graf and Alice’s producer Ed Michel.

As this noble two-disc release clearly testifies, this was a special, almost sacred, evening for both the audience and the players involved.
