Infinity is an album credited to John Coltrane, released on Impulse! Records in 1972. It features overdubs with strings of Coltrane's pieces recorded in 1965 and 1966, at the hands of Alice Coltrane. Her controversial "re-imagining" of her husband's late works was criticised by both fans and critics, as she took his original performances and superimposed them over lush orchestral backgrounds and re-dubbed rhythm section parts, as well as recording new solos on piano, organ, harp and timpani. rdf:langString
John Coltrane: Infinity è un album discografico di Alice Coltrane e John Coltrane, contenente sovraincisioni effettuate postume su materiale inciso da John Coltrane prima della morte, pubblicato dalla Impulse! Records nel 1972. La controversa scelta di Alice Coltrane di "rimaneggiare" brani incisi precedentemente dal marito, venne aspramente criticata da critica e pubblico, poiché furono aggiunti arrangiamenti orchestrali e re-incise parti della sezione ritmica, come anche nuovi assoli di pianoforte, organo, arpa e timpani, senza rispettare le scelte artistiche del defunto artista. rdf:langString

It features overdubs with strings of Coltrane's pieces recorded in 1965 and 1966, at the hands of Alice Coltrane. Her controversial "re-imagining" of her husband's late works was criticised by both fans and critics, as she took his original performances and superimposed them over lush orchestral backgrounds and re-dubbed rhythm section parts, as well as recording new solos on piano, organ, harp and timpani. Tracks 2 and 3 were originally recorded by the "classic quartet" (John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Elvin Jones) in 1965, while tracks 1 and 4 were recorded by Coltrane's later ensemble (Pharoah Sanders, Alice Coltrane, Garrison, Rashied Ali, and extra percussionist Ray Appleton). On the 1965 tracks, Alice retained the original rhythm section parts, adding string and tamboura parts only, but on the 1966 tracks, Garrison's bass parts were replaced with new recordings by Charlie Haden, and she herself recorded new solos. Regarding the criticism she received concerning the overdubs and alterations, Alice Coltrane reflected: "Some people didn't like the addition of strings... They said, 'We know that the original recording didn’t have any strings, so why didn't you leave it as it was?' I replied, 'Were you there? Did you hear [John's] commentary and what he had to say?'... We had a conversation about every detail; [John] was showing me how the piece could include other sounds, blends, tonalities and resonances such as strings. He talked about cosmic sounds, higher dimensions, astral levels and other worlds, and realms of music and sound that I could feel."

Le tracce 2 e 3 furono originariamente incise dal "quartetto classico" di Coltrane (John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, Elvin Jones) nel 1965, mentre le tracce 1 e 4 furono registrate dalla band seguente di Coltrane (Pharoah Sanders, Alice Coltrane, Garrison, Rashied Ali, più il percussionista extra ). Nelle tracce del 1965, Alice mantenne la sezione ritmica originale, aggiungendo solamente archi e tamboura, ma nelle tracce del 1966 invece, le parti di basso di Garrison furono rimpiazzate con nuove registrazioni ad opera di Charlie Haden, e Alice vi sovraincise dei nuovi assolo al piano.
