180g audiophile double vinyl reissue of saxophonist Pharoah Sanders' 1982 LP 'Live', featuring Walter Booker, Idris Muhammed and John Hicks, with re-mastering by Cicely Baston at Alchemy/Air Mastering.
Includes the bonus track "Doktor Pitt", which is not on the original vinyl release.
This album features Pharoah Sanders playing some no-nonsense tenor in a quartet with pianist John Hicks, bassist Walter Booker, and drummer Idris Muhammad.
Sanders performs "It's Easy to Remember" (in a style very reminiscent of early-'60s John Coltrane), an original blues, and two of his compositions, including the passionate "You've Got to Have Freedom." The musicianship is at a high level and, although Sanders does not shriek as much as one might hope (the Trane-ish influence was particularly strong during this relatively mellow period), he is in fine form.
