sidcow Posted September 24, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) How the **** has it fallen to me to report that Pharoah Sanders has died? I haven't the slightest idea who he is but seems the sort of fella VT would mourn and discuss his best albums/gigs.

Ornette Coleman once described him as the best tenor saxophonist in the world A true great of his genre and he worked with a lot of the other greats, John (and Alice) Coltrane, Orneter Coleman, Sun Ra, Don Cherry, Jah Wobble (ok I'm slightly teasing here) and his colaboration with Floating Points and the London Symphony Orchestra was widely acknowledged as one of the albums of the year last year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father of Eagle-eye, step-father of Neneh and another of the jazz greats (trumpet, cornet, piano and lots of African instruments). Don also got caught up in Post-punk British music through Neneh, as both were member's of Rip, Rig and Panic which was slightly less out there for a Jazz legend than his collaboration with Steve Hillage (Gong / System 7 & Solo) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the above subgenre is a bit 'out there' for my tastes. * * Although oddly enough, I do quite like Eric Dolphy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
