Just amazing. Not just one of the greatest jazz albums ever made…it’s one of the greatest albums ever made, period. Coltrane is the greatest player of the instrument I played from 7th grade until the time I figured out that being the sax player and the singer in a band wasn’t going to work, but I still love it…Coltrane plays tenor and soprano sax here, and he’s magnificent. The members of his quartet are Jimmy Garrison (bass), Elvin Jones (drums) and McCoy Tyner (piano). The original album consists of three tracks, and is the ultimate peak of Coltrane’s career. There are later reissues of A Love Supreme with up to three discs of alternate and live takes…I don’t need all of that. Give me the original and I’m just fine.
The opening track includes Coltrane chanting the album’s title. The portion of the final track titled “Psalm” is what Coltrane referred to as a musical recitation. It’s a poem, with the words played on his saxophone rather than being orally spoken. Throughout this record, the genius of Coltrane shines through, making this his most lasting and memorable work. He was moving ever closer to an avant-garde sound, and it was also believed that he was starting to dabble in psychedelic drugs. But just two years after A Love Supreme was released, Coltrane died of liver cancer at the young age of 40. He is still regarded as one of the greatest jazz players…one of the greatest saxophonists ever, and A Love Supreme is his ultimate masterpiece. [First added to this chart: 06/05/2025]

Blind Faith only existed for about six months. But they are still talked about to this day, going on sixty years later. Eric Clapton had left Cream, and Steve Winwood put Traffic on hiatus. The two began playing together, adding Cream’s drummer Ginger Baker, then finally bassist Ric Grech from Family. It was quite a supergroup lineup, but also one that never had the time to become what it maybe could have been. They were rushed into the studio, then rushed to record what was hoped to become a massively successful album. Blind Faith was released just over five months after the band formed, and they broke up for good less than a month later. There was also the album cover…it was considered controversial in the UK, not because of the girl pictured, but because of the airplane she was holding, which some though to be phallic.
Because the album was rushed, it sounds somewhat incomplete. There is some legendary greatness here: “Can’t Find My Way Home” is still a radio staple, and one of Winwood’s best songs. “Presence Of The Lord” is one of Clapton’s best works, and it’s pure guitar gold. It was actually Clapton’s only songwriting contribution…the rest were by Winwood, with the overlong space filling jam “Do What You Like” by Baker, and “Well All Right” being a Buddy Holly cover. The result is an album that’s half great and half might have been great had they been given more time. Blind Faith was done almost before it came out, but it’s still a pretty important piece of rock history. The bonus tracks don’t add a lot…both were written by Grech, who was the least interesting member. Historically valid, but short of greatness. [First added to this chart: 08/27/2025]
