As well as an elegant narrative of Coltrane's life Ratliff does something incredibly valuable - he writes about the saxophonist's unique sound.'A singular achievement . Ratliff has become one of the most eminent music journalists in the country . His warm, conversational writing style appeals to all readers. [On Jazz: A Critic's Guide to the 100 Most Important Recordings]' - Aaron Cohen, Down Beat'Ratliff has a genius for seeing a work simultaneously in detail and in its historical context. His descriptions enliven technical detail with metaphor, and the life of the artist with pithy storytelling, salty, enlightening personal prejudices, and a keen historical and musical awareness.' - Jon Garelick, Boston Phoenix'Ratliff's use of the telling detail to convey a larger point is illuminating even if you disagree with his judgements: instead of writing generalized portraits of chosen artists and albums, he begins his discussion of each individual's career with a close-up, then pulls back to reveal more . His musical analysis is smart yet accessible, and he writes with disarming directness.' - Peter Margasak, Chicago Reader The definitive biography of John Coltrane, and the first book to do justice to one of the greatest jazz musicians of all time.
