RARE!  edition of 500.  Instantly sold out.

Previously unreleased and not known to exist soundboard recording of Alice Coltrane Sextet live in Berkeley, California in1972.  Featuring a dream line up of Charlie Haden, Ben Riley, Ashish Khan, Pranesh Khan, Bobby W. and Alice Coltrane. Newly re-mastered from the original tapes. 
In 1972 (Journey In Satchidananda/Lord of Lords era), during one of Alice Coltrane’s most creative periods, she gathered five musicians for a live concert at the Berkeley Community Theater on July 23rd 1972. Bassist Charlie Haden, Sarod player Ashish Khan, Pranesh Khan on tabla and naal, Ben Riley on drums, Bobby W. on tambura and percussion.  
The four tracks featured for the performance (three John Coltrane compositions) –Journey in Satchidananda, A Love Supreme, My Favorite Things and Leo, show a group in full flight to the cosmos.  Alice Coltrane leads the sextet on organ, piano and harp.  This show, in particular, is as searing a document of a spiritual group of musicians in full launch to outer space.  As intense a performance and recording as we’ve heard from Alice Coltrane.  Raw, propulsive and incendiary.  Limited edition, 2LP gatefold.
