John Coltrane's Coltrane Live at the Village Vanguard Again!

Video Tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFl1aguWIwc

Description: On the cover of *Coltrane Live at the Village Vanguard Again!* you can almost feel the low ceiling and close-packed tables of that legendary basement club, where John Coltrane stretched his music into long, searching flights in 1966. Step onto Seventh Avenue South and imagine the quartet (with Alice Coltrane at the piano and Rashied Ali on drums) pushing past the boundaries of the earlier Vanguard recordings, filling this narrow wedge of Greenwich Village with fierce, spiritual sound. The photo freezes a moment from a turbulent era when Coltrane’s late style was baffling some fans and electrifying others, all centered on this unassuming doorway down the steps. This is one of the historic jazz stops in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
