Damn this is really fucking good.
What do you guys think of this album and Alice Coltrane in general?
i liked it too op but i didnt go back for a second listen
I think John Coltrane's mom should have never taken up jazz, and that she tainted her son's image

This album is cool but it's "static" I guess; also it's sort of a watered down version of Pharoah Sanders. The playing is all great but it sort of bothers me when Alice keeps using the same harp licks over and over
I'd suggest Karma and Jewels of Thought by Pharoah over this album, but this album is definitely good. I guess the flip side of that coin is that Journey in Satchidananda can be chill background music and doesn't require your undivided attention like Pharoah's stuff

What a coincidence, I just downloaded these minutes ago.
I'm new to jazz music and I really like the psychedelic vibes this album has and that's why I'm interested in checking Pharoah's work.
Is it similar?
Here's some of her lesser known tape releases (or as my abuela calls them "the soupy arrangements")

Ya pretty much. Almost the same style. The two big differences are that Pharoah's music has moments of all-out free jazz chaos and his music is more long-form; his best recordings are longer than 15 minutes. Alice's stuff is more laid-back and generally easier to digest. But definitely check him out bc he's very similar

Not the same anon but I just started listening to Pharoah sanders from this thread and it sounds really good. You have any other recommendations for someone new to the genre?

I downloaded a torrent with some of Alice's albums but none of these are in it.
Thanks a lot!

I'm not an expert on spiritual jazz but it's not a huge genre tb.h; all that stuff sounds similar, at least
