Polestar Music Gallery
“It just seems that the music has been directed by businessmen, I would suppose, who know how to arrange the making of a dollar... The music, changing as it is, there are a lot of times when it doesn't make sense, man, to have somebody drop a glass, or somebody asks for money right in the middle of Jimmy Garrison's solo... And these kind of things are calling for some other kind of presentation... I think the music is rising. In my estimation, it's rising into something else, and so we'll have to find this kind of place [for the music] to be played in.”
—John Coltrane, 1966
