Alice Coltrane - Ptah, the El Daoud (CD) Format:CD inventive songwriting and productionRecorded in the basement studio of the Coltrane home and originally released on Impulse in 1970, Alice Coltrane's fourth album is a masterpiece of spiritual jazz featuring Pharoah Sanders and Joe Henderson. The title track is an ode to the Egyptian God Ptah (the El Daoud meaning "the beloved"). Moments on the album reach what Coltrane describes with the term Turiya "a state of consciousness the high state of Nirvana, the goal of human life".
