Such a shame to see so many kids gettin brainwashed by that CASH MONEY HOES garbage cooked up by the White record industry... especially when such Immortal Black Art like that of Pharoah Sanders and Charles Mingus is still around and can easily be heard thanks to the internet
Had the privilege of seeing the man a few years ago, there was an intensity in his eyes that these words do little to relate, the closest I can come is absolute power control
I remember when I went to see Pharoah as a very young jazz lover downtown Manhattan at Slugs which is no longer there and also the vangard, village gate just to name a few.
He had a excellent congo drum player Nat Bettis. Remember you use to play for our african dance lessons, Pearl Reynold was my teacher. She was and still is a great and well known Dance teacher who also gave lesson at the dance theater of Harlem back in the day.
Thank you Pharoah Sanders for reminding me as a Teenager and as a Senior of what the Creator is about and reminding me throughout my life. PEACE on Earth and goodwill towards every one of its species.
I actually like Leon Thomas' singing - there is a strange connection in the yodeling with other ancient cultures. I had this album on vinyl in the early 70s. Mr. Sanders followed his muse to a place where I personally wanted John Coltrane to go and he took a few brave musicians with him. We have a d.j. here in L.A., at KPFK, who plays Pharoah Sanders every Sunday on a program called Rise. His name is Mark Maxwell.
@bamboosa Wonderful Mark...Keep Free Jazz alive...I use to play Pharoah, Leon, and other masters of free-style in the late 1970's on my midnight radio show in Atlantic City,NJ...Its liberating, and extremely spiritual....connect and enjoy....
@bamboosa That's strange, because I felt the same way about Coltrane. I expected him to do it but was pleasantly surprised when Sanders did it. Yes!!!!!!
I remember when this song first came out. There was a spirit in the air. America was in transition. Life for some and death for others. And so many lives destroyed by racism, but so many saved by love.. Oh, wait, that's today....This is one of the most beautiful songs ever made. There is so much eternal love and understanding in it.

@1GlenAlan lol. "these kids today" is a very judgmental term.
i am a 16 year old and pharoah sanders is my hero. I have many friends who are also fans of alice coltrane and sanders and the likes, and they're within the 16-17 year old range.
don't be so dismissive of an entire age group. the way you worded your comment made it sound like you were accounting for all kids and teenagers.
I got your message and I am commending you all! Your message was a blessing, but music like Pharoah's is mostly unknown to kids your age where I live. I sometimes let 'em listen to my music and they don't understand it! But keep on listening to keep Jazz like Pharoah's living!
See if you can find Hugh Masekala's song "A Felicidade", Big John Patton's "The Way I Feel" and Cal Tjader's "I Showed Them". I can't find Hugh's on YouTube yet. Also Peter Frampton's "Do You Feel Like I Do" or something like that. They're all different types of music, but I've always loved different music for 62 years!
@1GlenAlan Yeah im 14 and love Coltrane, Sanders, Miles and Sun Ra and i try to introduce it to my age group but often times they can't appreciate how wonderful it really is. what we need is for some modern artist to play this kind of music. then maybe kids would truly begin to relate to it more.
Sanders puts so much into his instruments that it sounds distorted.But I know what makes him play like that.I do the same thing when I really feel the song and try to channel as many emotions as possible.I loved him playing with Coltrane on Meditations.Thanks for sharing.Have my own CD but it's nice to have it one one of my playlists...Enes
One of the greatest recordings of all time. I am not a spiritual person, but this song really struck a chord with me the first time I heard it about ten years ago. I love his version of Coltrane's EQUINOX.
......Praises and BLESSING to you BROTHER PHAROAH...This song was being CREATed....as the ADVERSARY (satan), begin to raise his forces.....NOW LISTEN to, and ACT in ACCORDANCE to ........."THE CREATOR"....be inspiried....through this BEAUTIFUL MUSIC......Yeah,,yeah,,yeah,,,yeah,,yeah..yeah..yeah.....yeah ........yeah...!!!
Gorgeous, and it turned out to be the way pointer to today's mix of jazz, using but not overwhelmed by screech-honk--a way out of while incorporating the best of the dead end of atonal/modern jazz. Archie Shepp, Trane (sometimes), Charlie Parker, etc all it turns out led us into a dead end, and it nearly killed jazz. Sanders pointed the way forward and i think he well deserves a very broad critical rethinking.
If you think this song is nice now, you should have listened to it in '69 when we were undergoing a national change in consciousness. I must admit, it still inspires me. That was a genre that inspired hope in a harmonious celebration of life and freedom.
I was first introduced to Pharoah in 1974 when he was in concert with Ravi Shanker and Rashan Roland Kirk in Houston Texas. To this day I still follow them, for peace tranquility, and expansion of thought. Thank you so much for the flashback !
One of the all time great jazz recordings. Saw them at the Beacon theater on Broadway in NYC at a midnight concert. Began with The Creator coming up from a sunken stage. Unbelievable!

(Muse,Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer, blink-182, led zeppelin, black sabbath, classical composers, jazz composers etc.) Thumbs up
brotha man, was on a whole 'nuther level back in the day...and I hear he's still as relevant today. The gap between guys like him and Roy Ayers and a lot of these "neo-soul wanna-be's" today is the distance between where my mailbox is and the Sun. Sanders is a damm genius..
this one of the most inspired and inspirational songs ever recorded. it speaks of another time, another day, a new morning ...........it's got soul.....it makes you want to dance, to move, to travel, to be.......yes, to be......
great texture
