prise the lord coltrane


The Saint John Will-I-Am Coltrane African Orthodox Church

"Founders Archbishop Franzo King and Reverend Mother Marina King began this work in 1971 under the name of “One Mind Temple Evolutionary Transitional Body of Christ.” The inspiration came after the young couple had seen John Coltrane perform live in San Francisco in the year 1965. Being raised in the Pentecostal Church, Franzo King knew the presence of the Lord when it came through the power of the Holy Ghost. Seeing John Coltrane and hearing his sound that night was that familiar feeling he knew since childhood. It was the presence of God. Archbishop King refers to this as a “sound baptism” which touched their hearts and minds. Further investigation into this man proved him to be not just a “jazz musician” but one who was chosen to guide souls back to God."

"The musical ministry is delivered through the “Ministers of Sound” also known as the church ensemble: Ohnedaruth. Every Sunday, Ohnedaruth provides the rhythm section and lead horns which support the Voices of Compassion (choir), as together they seek to invoke the Spirit of God through sound praise. The sound praise consists of the Coltrane Liturgy, which combines the Divine Liturgy of the African Orthodox Church, and the Twenty-third Psalm, with the melodies, harmonies and rhythms of Saint John Coltrane's masterpiece: A Love Supreme."

still alive & well


wow...
THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN is really incredible!
it's a jack arnold's screen version from '57 of richard matheson's novel which tells u how it is when one day u start to shrink...

i always liked when these kind of ROBINSON CRUSOE or THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND style stories about humans trying to rise from hopeless situation, were set in different situations; like THE MOON PALACE by paul auster (where the central park plays the role of a deserted island), LIFE OF PI by yann martel (i didn't like it that much, but the deserted island there is changed for ... a boat with ... a tiger on it ...) and perhaps many others.

so here's the clip (with orson welles's voice over):



and a trailer with some shots for the encouragement:



BUT! they didn't show how he fights the tarantula! AWESOME!
and it's not only because tarantulas were always my greatest fear when i was a child (imagine falling asleep knowing that there is millions of tarantulas on the floor walking on each other just waiting to climb on the bed's leg and...)
