Today, on Martin Luther King day, as we recall his dream, we should also take a moment to honor Alice Coltrane, who passed away on Friday. Alice Coltrane was a be bop angel - she played jazz harp. Have you ever heard "Journey in Satchidananda"? If not, listen to it now. If so, listen to it now. Alice Coltrane heals. Alice Coltrane shatters. Alice Coltrane soars. Thank you, Alice, for helping me get through the moments, the days, the stormy weather, thank you for one of the greatest prayers of all time, thank you for making us all free at last - if only for a little while.
