It is beautiful, as is much of Pharoah's music. The spiritual nature of John Coltrane's music from A Love Supreme on was so influential and profound that it still resonates and transcends, and Pharoah Sanders was a perfect vessel to continue and expand it. It is very moving music.

One of my favorite musicians. Even though I don’t play a lick of his music I loved listening to it. I think I saw him walk into a piano bar in Manhattan once about 30 years ago. I really didn’t have the nerve to go up and try to talk to him. I met Art Blakey that same night in the same place and I did talk to him because he was standing right next to me.
