“Tell Me How Long Trane's Been Gone”
The most comprehensive documentary on John Coltrane ever produced for radio or television. 5 hours. Narrated by poet Michael S. Harper.
Produced and directed by Steve Rowland, written by Larry Abrams, this is the documentary that Coltrane's legacy deserves — unhurried, rigorous, and deeply intimate.
Five hours of rare interviews, archival recordings, and firsthand testimony trace Coltrane's journey from his North Carolina roots through the classic quartet years, the spiritual explosion of A Love Supreme, and into the avant-garde work that still unsettles and inspires.
Interviews include: Alice Coltrane, Elvin Jones, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Rashied Ali, Sonny Rollins, Max Roach, Carlos Santana, Babatunde Olatunji, Gary Bartz, Odean Pope, and others.
100% of proceeds from this documentary support Steve Rowland's upcoming non-profit film, Time Out of Joint: Prison Reflections on Shakespeare (www.TOOJ.org).
