Pharoah Sanders in 1971 was at the peak of his powers. He would play either peacefully or ferociously and this live recorded perfectly captures that duality. The passionate tenor litl up the club with a fine array of backing men including trumpeter Marvin "Hannibal" Peterson, flutist Carlos Garnett, drummers Norman Connors and Billy Hart and more. This album features a number of length excursions into another dimension namely the 20-minute 'Healing Song,' the extended 'Memories of J.W. Coltrane,' and 'Lumkili,' which comes in two parts. The Pharoah is in fine form throughout, making this a must for fans old and new.
