    PHAROAH SANDERS

    Izipho Zam

    [engl] 2018 REPRESS! Popular and increasingly in demand, IZIPHO ZAM (my gifts) falls into the ?rare? category among record collectors and is a gift to fans of master Pharoah Sanders. This demand is partially galvanized by the fact that ?Prince Of Peace? has become an inspirational mine to Hip Hop artists and is much loved by samplers. Izipho Zam is Pharoah Sander?s 3rd album, initially recorded in january 1969, it was originally released on the Strata-East label in 1973. On Izipho Zam Sanders and his band take you on a journey into another world providing an amazing experience! Passionate, intense and free, Sanders saxophone especially, is exquisite, pouring out its soul telling a story of its own. Hailed by peers as the best tenor saxophonist in the world, Pharoah Sanders is a legend in Jazz music. He is regarded as one of the pioneers of free jazz and is the mentor of jazz giant, saxophonist Robert Stewart. Born in 1940 into a musical family as Farell Sanders in Arkansas, he first played the clarinet before switching to tenor saxophone in High school. After High school he moved to California to study music and art. In 1961 Sanders moved to New York where he often played gigs with a number of free jazz dignitaries including Billy Higgins, Sun Ra and Don Cherry. His name ?Pharoah? was given to him by Sun Ra, who was his bandleader then. It was during one of these gigs that he met John Coltrane who became his mentor. While playing with Coltrane, Sanders inevitably rose to prominence due to his very distinctive tenor saxophone sound. - Rachel Kinoti, www.everland-music.com > Licensed by Strata East Records, Inc.

    PHAROAH SANDERS

    Pharoah Sanders Quintet

    Noch bevor Pharoah Sanders an der Seite von John Coltrane berühmt wurde, nahm er am 10. September 1964 sein Debüt-Album auf. Schlicht als Pharoah Sanders Quintet - oder später auch als "Pharoah's First" - betitelt, stellt der Tenorsaxofonist zusammen mit Stan Foster (Trompete), Jane Getz (Piano), William Bennett (Bass) und Marvin Pattillo (Percussion) hier erstmals sein Spiel in den Fokus. Anders als in späteren Jahren, als er mit unermüdlicher Bissigkeit seinen Stil bei Coltrane schärfte, um dann als einer der Pioniere des Ethno-Jazz seiner Musik eine spirituelle Wendung zu geben, ist er hier an einem spannungsreichen Übergang von Avantgarde- zum Mainstream-Jazz. "Sogar in diesem frühen Stadium ist er einzigartig", schrieb Clifford Allen (All About Jazz). "Ein sehr wichtiger Blick auf Pharoah Sanders und seine jungen, großen Ideen." Erst in den vergangenen Jahren ist der mittlerweile 77-Jährige zum Bebop zurückgekehrt, allerdings nicht in der Intensität und Rohheit dieser frühen Jahre. So schließen sich Kreise und lassen dieses aufregende Debüt noch einmal in einem neuen Licht erstrahlen.
