About
Meditations is a 1966 album by John Coltrane, released by Impulse! Records (A-9110) and often described as a 'spiritual successor' to A Love Supreme. It features Coltrane alongside Pharoah Sander, both on tenor saxophone. The album was recorded on November 23, 1965, and represents the final session with Coltrane’s classic quartet — McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones — augmented here by Sanders and second drummer Rashied Ali. Tyner and Jones would leave the group soon afterward, while Sander, Ali, Garrison, and Alice Coltrane formed the core of Coltrane’s subsequent ensemble. Earlier versions of several pieces (Compassion, Love, Consequence, Serenity) had been recorded in September 1965 by the quartet without Sanders and Ali; these recordings were later released in 1977 as First Meditations (for quartet).
