I’ve always been fascinated by the music of Alice Coltrane, especially the Ashram releases. They have a certain devotional atmosphere that just speaks to how I instinctively feel the presence of God.

Recently, I’ve rediscovered them by pulling together a number of different strands of content from across the Internet.

Alice Coltrane’s musical legacy isn’t just restricted to this time period. For a more exhaustive look at her life and discography than I could ever give here, a visit to Alice’s official website is always in order.
