Inspirations finds Michael Garrick turning inward with his New Quartet, distilling a lifetime of big ideas into melodic, small-group conversation. Recorded in 2006, it honours John Coltrane’s legacy without mimicry, letting Garrick, Martin Hathaway, Paul Moylan, and Alan Jackson reimagine spiritual intensity as supple, lyrical post-bop.​

2006 recording by the legendary pianist and composer Michael Garrick, showcasing the 'New Quartet' he'd been playing with since 2001. The programme of mostly originals includes a tribute to John Coltrane, to commemorate Trane's 80th anniversary, and a celebration of late sax legend Joe Harriott that features Martin Hathaway on alto sax.
