He did die too young, but that needle wrecked his liver.

The plague of WAY too many musicians who died before their time. I never worked with Coltrane, but sure worked with a lot of other, very talented musicians. Music eats your soul if it ain't finished. And when it IS finished, the NEXT session begins eating at it again.

It's a tortured life, brought on by personal pains and suffering that PRODUCES the music as an escape from those demons. And so it goes.

Very few people actually understand art and music. There be demons with them all. Same goes for highly talented people in other professions. It's the pain and suffering of their own souls that cause them to express those feelings in their art which the rest of us get to enjoy. But behind that beauty is many suffering who do that to bring us the joy that they bring us, mostly for their own selves. We just get to share in that which brings them relief from it. :)

I've spent most of my life in the "entertainment" industry and I've seen it all first hand. God bless them for trying to bring joy to others while they try to soothe themselves by doing it.

"The Gentle Side of John Coltrane" is one of my favorite albums.
