A couple of days ago (I think it was) Barron said that he misses the John Coltrane song "My favorite Things" on the DCD of Santana's Lotus. It was a 3LP-set when it appears originally and he thought that "Things" had been on one side of the LP, but never had been released on CD. And me and some others, who had the original LPs, said, he must be wrong. And I said that it was Alice Coltrane that arranged the first title on that album and that could be the reason for this misunderstanding.

But I asked you, how could we forget that Santana and McLaughlin had done a whole album that was nearly completely devoted to Coltrane? You'll find on "Love Devotion Surrender" A Love supreme and Naima. And the rest is inspired by Trane. So Barron, if you like to hear Carlos playing Coltrane listen to it. (Unfortunately with no "Things" on it). And if you like that sort of Jazz that Coltrane played, there is another big name. And the name is Miles Davis. And Santana played Miles' "In a silent way" on side 2 of the Legacy-Edition of "Santana III".

After all I be damn sure that there had been other rock-bands in the 70's and 80's who risked to play Coltrane (not to their advantage). I think John C. would say, the best Coltrane song a rock-band had published is a song I never have written: It's the Dream Syndicate's "John Coltrane Stereo Blues".
