Jazz, Coltrane, Sanders, Lorca


Epic tribute to John Coltrane's "Ole," itself based on "El Quinto Regimiento," a song of the Spanish Civil War derived from earlier Andalusian folk music. As for the link to Lorca, we must remember the Spanish poet's dedication to the music and folklore of al-Andalus. Although I prefer McCoy Tyner's style over William Henderson, Sanders and Idris Muhammad are on fire in this performance.
