When Coltrane Calls Session 1: Fierce Compassion
When Coltrane Calls Session 1: Fierce Compassion
"Thank you John Coltrane for staying the course and keeping it completely real, as we all must do!" —Tisziji Muñoz
"So the challenge at this recording was to respond to the spirit of Coltrane, without being imitative or looking back. I know that to play effectively with Tisziji, it is imperative that one be 100% in the Now. A few of Trane's compositions were played, most reverently by Lam Sobo John Medeski on piano. These beautiful pieces set a tone of prayer and gratitude. They were a great springboard for Tisziji's cataclysmic Heart Fire Storm sonic meditations. Like Coltrane, Tisziji has the presence and wisdom to elicit the highest, deepest Spirit core reality from the musicians present." —Ra Kalam Bob Moses
