john coltrane supreme 1 John Coltrane x Supreme Collection

John Coltrane is a giant in the history of American music. He was a pioneer in developing a new sound in Jazz music with the use of modes and improvisation, and later was at the forefront of the Free Jazz movement. As a leader Coltrane was astonishingly prolific and recorded almost fifty albums. He also co-collaborated on, and strongly influenced, many other recordings with the legends of his time including Miles Davis and Thelonious Monk. As his life and career progressed, Coltrane’s music took on an increasingly spiritual dimension, which became integral to his sound. Coltrane has influenced innumerable musicians, and remains one of the most significant tenor saxophonists in Jazz history.

For the coming season Supreme, along with the John Coltrane foundation is proud to present a group of T-shirts honoring this great American icon.

Available in-store and webstore on October 22nd. Available in Japan on October 24th.

    it’s not a “play on the black flag bars”. it’s the album cover of Art Blakey’s Big Band and Quintet.

    Oh man, this is huge. Just a pitty Supreme has become so watered down in recent years. Gonna’ be surreal to see some 15 year old kid, who knows nothing about Coltrane, sporting this tee.

    I like the simplicity.

    i guess these alright if u like pictures slapped on t shirts with a mini logo

    Coltrane only had 30 albums as a leader, 31 if you count the posthumously released ‘Expression’. He played on a ton of shit though. Like the shirts though, maybe this will turn some kids on to his music.

    these are fucking nice. Just gotta hope they don’t ruin them with all that shit on the back like they did the Miles tees.
