Episode 012: Catching the Trane with Jamie Howison

download (4).jpg

This week I’m talking with Jamie Howison about John Coltrane and jazz. Jamie, an Anglican priest, recounts his own journey with jazz and specifically his deepening fandom of John Coltrane, which lead to him writing a book about Trane, God's Mind in That Music (2012). We discuss Coltrane’s work with other legends - Theolonious Monk and Miles Davis; his solo work and experimental sound; as well as his ongoing and evolving spirituality expressed in his later works like A Love Supreme and Meditations.
