The album that started it all, in a sense. A Monastic Trio arrived a year after the 1967 passing of John Coltrane, with the newly widowed Alice Coltrane putting together a jazz combo of players that would pay tribute to her late husband's legacy. Pharoah Sanders, Jimmy Garrison, and Rashied Ali, all former members of John Coltrane's final quintet, joined the godmother of spiritual jazz to forge the blueprint here of the kaleidoscopic wonders that were to come. This reissue is part of the Verve By Request series, and comes pressed by Third Man onto tasty 180-gram vinyl. - Flying Out
Recorded in 1968 and intended as a tribute to her late husband, Alice Coltrane is supported in her first solo outing by Pharoah Sanders, Jimmy Garrison and Rashied Ali - all members of John Coltrane’s last quintet. While initial reviews to the album were lukewarm upon release, looking at it in the context of her larger body of work, A Monastic Trio serves as a delightful foreshadowing of what was to come. The Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
