Alice Coltrane, live at Carnegie Hall, New York on February 21st 1971

On Sunday, February 21st, 1971, a benefit was held in New York's Carnegie Hall for Swami Satchidanda's Integral Yoga Institute, featuring Laura Nyro, the New Rascals and Alice Coltrane's All-Stars. The latter band was a remarkable coming-together of talent, with Lady Trane joined by legends such as Pharoah Sanders, Archie Shepp and Jimmy Garrison on stupendous form (with a little assistance from members of the Yoga Institute).

The astounding performance of John Coltrane's Africa on this set, broadcast on WQXR-FM, finds them improvising thrillingly and is accompanied by background notes and images.
