    First of all, I saw Pharoah do this live and it was so primal, shamanic, and artistic. At the same time that it was beautiful and frightening in equal measure, it was a dramatic performance, like an exorcism or holy ghost revival .My eyes, my ears, my emotions, my soul, and even my hormones were raptured into the bullfight...because that is what is happening,....the total mind, body, and feelings were engaged from the first note until the bull dies at the end, a heroic figure who samson like, kills the matador, the audience, and brings down the whole damn thing in refusing to yield. He shakes, he screams a challenge to heaven itself, and fights not just the matador..other instruments...but the cosmic order itself. And though he must finally end, he was not defeated and will never be defeated for he purrs, moans, growls, and noises even to the end. Idris Muhammad's drums capture the martial nature of the struggle, Walter Booker on base never relents from the theme..this is life and death..., and William Henderson engages the horn-bull in unending but will end combat.
    During the live performance, the band played the intro itself for 10 minutes, with Pharoah on castanets and doing pirouettes like a flamenco dancer, the proud bull, flouncing into the arena, taking his time allowing you to marvel at his magnificence, keeping you in the thrall of anticipation... You will experience this on the bull's terms too. And when the horn runs started, I was mesmerized, and then I became fearful. As the bass line pulsed, and the drums rolled the combatants into attack formation, and the beautiful piano matador showed it was equal and undaunted, Pharoah unleashed a torrent of escalating intensity, cascading entire lines into almost a single scream. I pleaded inside, stop him, he is going to kill himself and us along with him. Surely, no mortal flesh could bring forth this level of energy and live. Yet over and over, he charged, enraged, insulted almost, and engaged the inevitable, bellowing ,screaming to and at heaven, circled and charged again until not one drop of juice was left in me.
    Simply put, one of the greatest performances ever by the greatest ARTIST of the 20th century.

    When I say this I am not speaking in hyperbole: I don't think any other piece of music has moved me so profoundly on a deep, visceral emotional level. I vainly assumed I was having a unique experience, but reading through these comments I see that I am not alone. That a musical performance can speak to so many people in such a succinct way is surely a sign of the genius of the performers.

    Who else has ever "brought it" like Pharoah? A true Son Of Trane, he took what he shared with the master and added his own total mastery of putting sound and the human voice and emotions into both the tenor and soprano saxes.........putting him on a level achieved by few, if any. And, what a group......Monster Modal Energy I call it........I was not fortunate enough to see this group or even his other great 80's group (my favorite) with John Hicks, Walter Booker and the same Idris Muhammad on drums..........but I sure was there in the late sixties and seventies, seeing him perform all over New York with the first great group with Lonnie LIston Smith, Cecil McBee and several different drummers, along with Leon Thomas........one time, a wonderful Memorial Day concert on Staten Island, NY was plagued by clouds all day.........the group played the Creator and the sun came out as soon as Pharoah finished his intro and that famous bass line came in .......the crowd went berserk !!..... even the musicians broke out in huge smiles........what a lifelong memory!!!

    I used to have this album. I remember reading in the liner notes that they had to edit this track to fit it on one side of the album. Never understood why, as both Pharoah Sanders' The Creator Has a Master Plan and Black Unity covered two sides of an LP. Would love to listen to the full version. The bit when Pharoah screams the melody gives me a full on spinal rush of ecstasy. Absolutely amazing version.

      If you have heard the frustratingly few other versions of Ole that I have been able to find on RUclips (ie those of Noah Howard’, Coltrane fils and...er..that’s about all) PLUS Nozipho and Equinox by the same artist (PLUS the Coltrane originals by which, of course, all others are to be judged, even though they are all so different!) AND have dived deeper into the latter’s classic quartet’s entire oeuvre (Out of This World and Afro Blue Live at Birdland spring immediately to mind) then particular tracks that I would recommend, in no particular order except, perhaps, that in which I discovered them, would be as follows:
      Yusuf Lateefs’ “Sister Maime”, “Like It Is”and “Brother John” (no prizes for guessing which particular ‘brother’, of course!) -there is a particularly good version of the latter that he does with two other brothers, the Belmondo’s, and their orchestra!
      Joe Henderson’s “Earth” which leads straight to Alice Coltrane and her stuff like “Blue Nile” and “Journey in Satchi..whatever”
      Another funny thing I found coming entirely from left-field was a band called Xhol Caravan (sic) also purporting to do a version of “Ole” but this turns out to be more like “Welcome”, or something else entirely. This band, however, turned out to be a lesser-known early Krautrock outfit AND this was one of my very first loves (before I more or less got married to jazz!) so, in the lockdown I have (to my real wife’s disgust!) gone back to it and have since been getting off on this band’s excellent (if you like that sort of thing, which SHE definitely doesn’t!) output -check out “All Green”, for example and, if you have as addictive a personality as I do, you could soon be equally hooked. It also took me to another ancient Krautrock discovery called Agitation Free and of course right back to my all time favourite piece of live music, or performance art, that very few people have ever heard of, which is “Solar Music” - a ‘magnum opus’ by a band going by equally ‘magnum’ name of Grobschnitt. The music, like the band themselves and their name, is not pretty but has certainly seeped into my soul like no other.....period.

    This a response to Jason McLean's comments 11 mos ago - see below.
    When first heard this tune ( the Coltrane version) I heard a paso doble ( played in 3/4 instead of 2/4), the type of music played at bullfights hence, while the word
    olé has an Arabic origin, I doubt very much that the flamenco players
    and the spectators at corridas or other sporting events are referring to
    some god. This interjection is then simply a shout of approval, triumph,
    or encouragement.
    BTW, the Coltrane disc, while not very well known, is a must for Coltrane's fans. :)

    Ole comes from the Arabic word 'Allah' meaning 'God.' When they dance and played Flamenco they are literally shouting out to God................ GIVE EM' THE FUCKING HORNS!!!!!!!!!!!

      When first heard this tune I heard a paso doble ( played in 3/4 instead of 2/4), the type of music played at bullfights hence, while the word olé has an Arabic origin, I doubt very much that the flamenco players and the spectators at corridas or other sporting events are referring to god. This interjection is then simply a shout of approval, triumph, or encouragement.

      óle or olé or also ála how we say in spain is an expression of "enthusiasm"; so enthusiasms from the greek theos, en-theos means with god inside.

      yes, Pedro, after listening to it 500 times I can see its clearly the same song. A greatly different version, but still carrying the same vibe and spirit

      "The structure and melody of the modal jazz vamp "Olé" was borrowed from the Spanish folk song "El Vito" (later used as the tune of "El Quinto Regimiento" from the Spanish Civil War, which was made known by Pete Seeger)"
