Q - 10/95, p.136
5 Stars - Indispensable - "...a four-part affirmation of religious faith, and simply one of the most influential records of the '60s. It's challenging and intense, but an essential and ultimately very beautiful album..."

Included in Q's list of "The Best Jazz Albums of All Time."
Uncut - 2/03, p.91
4 stars out of 5 - "...Stormy jazz from the height of the New Thing..."
The Wire - 12/02, pp.51-3
"...A LOVE SUPREME is marvellously self-contained....The dignity of A LOVE SUPREME has not been compromised and it has never sounded better on CD..."
Down Beat - 4/8/65
5 Stars - Excellent - "...Coltrane's artistry is evident in his never permitting tension to overcome its counterpoise, release....[A LOVE SUPREME] is a significant album, because Coltrane has brought together the promising but underdeveloped aspects of his previous work; has shorn, compressed, extended and tamed them; and has emerged a greater artist for it...."
Down Beat - 11/95, p.73
5 Stars - Excellent - "With the power of prayer fueling its invention, half the universe's choice for desert-island disc still sounds novel....Trane's rolling discourse managed to be simultaneously menacing and sublime..."
Vibe - 12/99, p.160
Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century
Mojo (Publisher) - 1/03, p.106
"...A LOVE SUPREME remains a remarkable, challenging listen...It's the definitive version of a definitive moment..."
NME (Magazine) - 10/2/93, p.29
Ranked #36 in NME's list of the 'Greatest Albums Of All Time.'
Pitchfork (Website) - "A LOVE SUPREME, recorded with what was later called his classic quartet, is Coltrane's musical expression of his 1957 epiphany. It's the sound of a man laying his soul bare."
