Trane's prayer
Here is a quote I'd like to share with you. In talking about his wanting to be a "force for real good."
-John Coltrane, 1966
I want to discover a method so that if I want it to rain, it will start immediately to rain. If one of my friends is ill, I'd like to play a certain song and he'll be cured. When he'd be broke, I'd bring out a different song, and immediately he'd get all the money he needed. But what these pieces are, and what is the road to attain the knowledge of them, that I don't know. The true powers of music are still unknown. To be able to control them must be, I believe, the goal of every musician."
-John Coltrane, 1966
