Two CD set. John Coltrane's Sun Ship was one of the last "and finest" chapters in the story of his classic quartet. The album profiles the saxophonist in transition, from the secular to the sacred. Deepening his spiritual journey, Trane discovers the sound "the urgent cry" that marks his mystique and assures his immortality. But it was released four years after Coltrane's death, in 1971, culled from session tapes by Coltrane's wife Alice. This two CD set is the result of an extraordinary discovery: The entire session as it was recorded on August 26, 1965, with Trane, pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison and drummer Elvin Jones, with producer Bob Thiele. Newly mixed and remastered in high-resolution audio, this special release includes every recorded moment from the session: all alternate takes conversation between the musicians, their leader and their producer more than one hour of unreleased music. The 16-page booklet features an essay by renowned Coltrane scholar David Wild and rare photos by Chuck Stewart, who shot the original album cover.
