🙏🏿🎼#ArtIsAWeapon "St. John Coltrane The Divine Sound Baptist (1992)" by #artist Mark Doox @markdoox • VIA @tmagazine: The Canonization of Saint John Coltrane The intensity of the jazz legend’s music has always inspired passion, but in the 1960s, one group of devotees was so stirred they founded a church in his name. https://nyti.ms/3GgRk0V • Reposted from @markdoox This piece set the tone for my entire artistic life. AND it keeps on giving. You can read the article THE CANONIZATION OF SAINT JOHN COLTRANE by clicking on my link at my profile page. • Reposted from @tmagazine The Saint John Coltrane Church in San Francisco — a branch of the African Orthodox Church, where the jazz musician John Coltrane is the canonized patron saint — is a family affair. It was founded in 1969 by His Eminence Archbishop Franzo W. King, D.D., and his wife, the Most Rev. Supreme Mother Marina King, before they possessed such lofty titles. The church began around 1964, as the Jazz Club in the couple’s garage — “a listening clinic,” F.W. King, now 77, says. “Maybe less than a dozen brothers and sisters would come together every week. Everybody would bring a new album. We’d put the music on and start testing our ears and our knowledge.” One day, someone brought Coltrane’s 1965 record “A Love Supreme.” “I wasn’t really that impressed!” King says. “I didn’t even want to listen to the album.” But a few months later, the couple attended a Coltrane concert at the Jazz Workshop, in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood, and that, says King, “began the evolutionary, transitional process of us becoming truly born-again believers in that anointed sound that leaped down from the tone of heaven out of the very mind of God, stepped from the very wall of creation and took on a gob of flesh, and we beheld his beauty as one that was called John.” After King saw Coltrane live again a few months later, he began to think of the club in his garage as more of a temple.
