Blending Times is Ravi Coltrane's fifth album as a band leader, and second for Savoy Records. Five of the tracks on this album are group improvisations "conceived and directed by Ravi Coltrane" that don't follow a standard time signature or preset measures lengths, reminiscent of free jazz popularized by Ornette Coleman. The album's final track, "For Turiya", is a eulogy for Alice Coltrane, Ravi's mother, the wife of John Coltrane and a musician in her own right, who died during the album's recording. Blending Times reached 36 on Billboard's Jazz Albums Chart, his second time making the chart.
