For fans of John Coltrane his lost album is exciting. For the church that worships him, it's a religious event

Eight months before John Coltrane died, he performed a concert at Temple University. During the concert, the legendary jazz musician put down his horn and banged his fists against his chest. He screeched and he squawked. He yodeled and he screamed. He prayed and he sang.
