Alice Coltrane: Journey In Satchidananda (Impulse AS-9203)
Nick Tosches, Rolling Stone, 2 September 1971
THIRTY-THREE year-old Alice Coltrane met her late husband in 1963. They were married shortly thereafter and, in late 1966, she replaced McCoy Tyner on the piano in the John Coltrane Quartet. From the time of Alice's addition until the time of John's death in the late summer of 1967, Coltrane's recording activity was at a minimum; there was one live recording (Live al the Village Vanguard Again) in May, 1966, and two studio sessions (Expression and Cosmic Music) in early 1967. (In 1965 alone he had recorded seven albums.)
