Great insight into a rather wonderfully elusive brilliantly talented musician.

In an interview with Japanese journalists in Tokyo, in 1966, Coltrane answers a question about what he would like to in twenty years as a person or musician by saying: "In music, or-as a person...I would like to be a saint."
This book, by compiling Coltrane's responses in interviews and the many articles written about him by critics, provides a rich portrait of Coltrane the true patron saint of jazz: one of the most important musicians of the 20th century and a deeply dedicated, humble, and wonderful man.
