Our Take

Pharoah Sanders, legendary jazz saxophonist and spiritual jazz pioneer, blesses us with his latest album, aptly titled "Pharoah." And let me tell you, this record is more of a sonic journey than a mere collection of songs.

From the moment you press play, you're transported to a transcendent realm filled with swirling saxophone solos, hypnotic rhythms, and a sense of spiritual enlightenment that can only be achieved through the power of music. Sanders' iconic wails and cries on tracks like "The Creator Has a Master Plan" and "Love in Us All" will send shivers down your spine and make you question your very existence.

But don't be fooled by the serious nature of Sanders' music - there's a playful sense of experimentation woven throughout "Pharoah." The incorporation of African percussion, free jazz elements, and avant-garde textures creates a sense of unpredictability that keeps you on your toes from start to finish.

In a world oversaturated with cookie-cutter pop tunes, "Pharoah" stands out as a breath of fresh air with its bold creativity and adventurous spirit. So if you're looking for an album that will challenge your musical sensibilities and take you on a wild ride through the cosmos, look no further than Pharoah Sanders' latest offering. Trust me, your ears will thank you.

About the artist

Pharoah Sanders

With his towering presence and unmistakable tenor saxophone, Pharoah Sanders is a force of nature in the world of jazz. Born Farrell Sanders in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1940, he began his musical journey at a young age, playing in various R&B bands before eventually finding his home in the avant-garde jazz scene of New York City in the 1960s. Sanders' music is an expansive, spiritual journey that transports listeners to another realm. His free-form improvisations, soaring melodies, and primal screams have earned him a reputation as one of the most innovative and influential musicians in the history of jazz. Sanders’ music is a sonic exploration of the cosmos, with each note serving as a portal to another dimension. His collaborations with the likes of John Coltrane, Alice Coltrane, and Sun Ra have solidified his status as a true jazz luminary. His seminal album "Karma" is a prime example of Sanders' ability to blend the sacred and the profane, with its hypnotic grooves and transcendent solos. Tracks like "The Creator Has a Master Plan" showcase his gift for crafting epic, otherworldly compositions that continue to resonate with listeners to this day. Now in his eighties, Sanders continues to push the boundaries of jazz with his fearless experimentation and unwavering commitment to his craft. Whether performing in intimate jazz clubs or headlining massive music festivals, Pharoah Sanders remains a towering figure in the world of music, always in search of new sonic frontiers to explore.
