London saxophonist Sean Khan has recorded possibly his finest album to date, a tribute to his mentor and inspiration John Coltrane. ‘Supreme Love’ really is a journey through Coltrane, featuring tracks from each of his different periods complemented by some original Khan compositions in a coherent manner. Sean is accompanied by some stalwarts of the UK Jazz scene Jim Mullen and the late saxophonist Peter King who passed during the making of the album plus friends from the Broken Beat scene Kaidi Tatham and Daz I Kue and regular band members drummer Laurie Lowe, keyboardist Andy Noble and the incredible vocalist Heidi Vogel. This album is great throughout—not one weak track—but special mention to ‘A Love Supreme’ , ‘Impressions’ , ‘Afro Blue’, ‘Naima’ and his own compositions ‘Starchild’ and ‘Azawala’ which are amongst the highlights. Great album featuring some superb compositions and mesmerising playing from all involved, especially Khan, one of the highest quality reedmen on the contemporary UK Jazz scene.
