Pharoah Sanders – Live – Theresa Records 180 Vinyl 2 LP Gatefold Sleeve

Beware! This is hot stuff! Wear asbestos clothing while listening. Four world-class musicians at the very pinnacle of their art relating closely to one another in the vortex of a cyclone of jazz music. They’re all burning, but listen particularly to John Hicks (R.I.P Mr. Hicks) on “DOKTOR PITT.” Is he not the best thing to happen to the keyboard since McCoy Tyner? And when I state John Hicks was burning, if you’ve ever had the opportunity to view the video of this performance (maybe still on YouTube) recorded at the Great American Music Hall in 1981, you’ll see Mr. Hicks melting with perspiration. That’s cookin’ brother… review by James S. Grogan
