2014 marks the 50th anniversary of John Coltrane’s seminal recording A Love Supreme. He presented it as a spiritual declaration that his musical devotion had become intertwined with his religious faith. The Campbell Brothers, whose unique sacred steel gospel music was created in African-American churches, revisit the work on their signature slide guitars to mark the anniversary, paying particular attention to its transcendent spiritual message. “The Campbells create a unique, steel-guitar-driven gospel music that’s every bit as earth-shattering as [Robert] Johnson’s music was in the ’30s. It’s a soul-stirring blend of gospel and the power and volume of electric blues and rock, a sound as hot as brimstone that kicks holy butt.” (NPR)
