Today In Jazz History: The Tragic Story Of Coltranes’s Back-up Singers.

‘Trane hired these lovely ladies for the now famous A Love Supreme session. But they were lured away by Miles Davis with the promise of devils lettuce and a pool-side party (Bill Evans was not invited because that white guy was a real downer). The ladies were drawn to a back bedroom by the orgasmic sounds of Keith Jarret (not his piano playing). A MFFF NSFW soirée ensued. Miles got jealous, angry, and brandished a gun. The ladies missed the session and a befuddled Coltrane had to sing the part himself.
