i can be pretty forceful with my opinion tbh... but when it comes to music i'm especially forceful when it comes to hip hop.
i feel like i'm ignorant enough when it comes to something like jazz or metal that i don't really care to comment on it usually... i am usually more interested in other people's opinions than my own. i will say i don't care for x like free jazz or death metal but i'm sure there is something there i just don't hear it because i haven't really exposed myself to much of it.
but with hip hop i basically think i know better than most people, lol. mostly cause i've spent the better part of my teenage/adult life listening to it somewhat obsessively.
but at the end of the day of course i know it's just opinion. but with music/art it's more fun to fight over opinions than to agree on facts in my view

Ah okay. I do love Dearly Beloved as well (covered it on my most recent album, actually), and it is a bit different from the rest of the album in the way that it kind of lingers, for lack of a better word. It just keeps going while changing enough to make it interesting, if that makes sense.

i like the way the tension keeps building until it spills over @ 2:00 or so
i also love the meandering piano. reminds me of parts of a love supreme. sounds very spiritual to me which is ultimately the response coltrane intended to evoke with his music

Give it another shot if you're in the mood, the world can always use more Coltrane fans. I could see the Coltrane museum being pretty sweet, the church to a lesser degree.

i actually think the church would be more interesting lol
i think the museum has like one of his old pianos or something but i dunno what else is there. it's not a very big place though i don't think

Interstellar Space might be worth your time, it's a series of duets with Rashied Ali and Coltrane. It's my favourite of his discography but it does touch on some more freeform areas that might turn you off though.

yea i will try to get into his later stuff at some point. i think it will take a bit of effort though. it honestly took a while just to go from being a non-jazz listener to appreciating a love supreme and **** like that
to be perfectly honest i still don't really care a lot of jazz that is held in high regard like kind of blue era miles davis and the early coltrane material etc.
