Released in 1966, Meditations captures John Coltrane at a pivotal moment as he moved beyond the boundaries of A Love Supreme into the spiritual intensity of free jazz. Featuring the final full appearance of his legendary classic quartet—McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones—alongside Pharoah Sanders and Rashied Ali, the album is a powerful statement of transformation, devotion, and musical exploration.
This Verve Vault edition is mastered all-analog from the original tapes by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound and pressed on 180-gram vinyl, delivering this landmark recording with exceptional sound quality.
