As for quality, three of the four seem made it to CD, though the new commercial CD anthology is definitely better sound than any of them. ishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750800388443950585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31981949.post-23894671318475243612017-11-24T18:05:15.911-05:002017-11-24T18:05:15.911-05:00Hi ish

I think I have CD versions of three of the original tapes; one is European the other two seem to originate with Avatar. I didn't know there was new content on the vinyl. Hope that makes it to other formats eventually!ishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750800388443950585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31981949.post-88689322998845722422017-05-19T19:12:54.887-04:002017-05-19T19:12:54.887-04:00As a long time admirer of Alice Coltrane and ...As a long time admirer of Alice Coltrane and later, as her evolvement as A.C. Turiyasangitananda, I lucked out in the late 1980's to find a spiritual book store in Vancouver that had cassette versions of her first three cassette recordings. Numerous attempts over the years to order Glorious Chants and some of her Infinite Wisdom books from the Avator Centre went unheeded. In time I obtained a phone number and eventually was able to speak to a volunteer who was able to fulfill my order. Glorious Chants was released in compact disc format. I am not absolutely sure, but for a time the previous three recordings may have been available in CD format. As any follower of A.C. Turiyasangitananda today is aware, these recordings are being sold online for incredible prices. Thankfully, a new recording, "The Ecstatic Music of Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda," has just been released in three formats - cassette, vinyl and CD format. The vinyl version has two booklets and side four features two new previously unreleased compositions. As A.C. states on the back of the release, "I do get deeply engaged spiritually in the music, because it is a spiritual language for me, it's not a musical language. I'm expressing , articulating, deep feeling and deep experience in life, in spiritual life, in God." That is how i hope her spirit and time here on this earth will be celebrated.Mark Desjardinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03462398112337688515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31981949.post-74929871166156482822013-07-23T22:24:28.278-04:002013-07-23T22:24:28.278-04:00Thanks for that link.

Turiyasangitananda's recordings, which are available through the Avatar Book Institute, but can't find "Glorious Chants" anywhere and would love to hear it.
