Though the "Witches & Devils" album by Albert Ayler might seem like the logical avant jazz classic to cover on Halloween, the four members of the fine and frequently funky Atlantis Quartet -- world traveler Brandon Wozniak (sax), Zacc Harris (electric guitar), omnipresent bass man Chris Bates, and Pete Hennig (drums) -- have chosen instead to revive John Coltrane's far better known and more influential, "A Love Supreme." Pumpkin transcendence, anyone? Trane's life-changing spiritual gem is a musical Everest worth climbing, so kudos to this emerging combo with a fine original CD under its belt ( titled "Again, Too Soon") for trying something so tough and vital. It should be interesting to hear how Mr. Harris' six strings replace McCoy Tyner's 88 rumbling piano keys. Tom Surowicz
