Jimmy Garrison: Bass
Rashied Ali: drums
Jack Dejohnette: drums
Clifford Jarvis: drums
Tulsi: Tamboura

One of Alice's more way-out albums, the fruit of a visit to South Asia, the source of her spiritual inspiration. Alice Coltrane's organ is fierce and shrieking, sounding more like an oboe than a keyboard: no funky soul jazz here. And yet it's also deeply meditative and brooding. The string transcriptions are by, of all people, Ornette Coleman. A beautiful record.
