A Love Supreme
1965
Impulse!
A man goes up into his attic and writes a love poem to his god. He comes downstairs and records it with maybe the greatest quartet in the history of jazz. It becomes not only his best-known album, but one of the two jazz albums people who don’t listen to jazz have heard of, and a heartbreakingly beautiful work of overpowering intensity and flawless beauty.
