“A comprehensible work is the product of a journalist. We need works that are strong, straight, precise, and forever beyond understanding.”

Kenneth Tynan.

Elation. Elegance. Exaltation. All from God. Thank you God. Amen.

A Love Supreme was recorded on this date in 1964, in one take.




SUPREME:

1523, from M.Fr. suprême, from L. supremus “highest,” superlative of superus “situated above,” from super, “above.”

Super:
from L. adverb and preposition super “above, over, on the top (of), beyond, besides, in addition to,” from PIE base *uper “over” (cf. Skt. upari, Avestan upairi “over, above, beyond,” Gk. hyper...Goth. ufaro “over, across”...)

Or, you know, just listen to Beans' verse in “What We Do.”
