Lost track of Pharoah Sanders years ago and was crushed to hear of his passing. Have to add my voice to the chorus of mind blown 20 year olds, back in the day, who loved all kinds of music. Saw him with this group at the Village Vanguard in NYC and elsewhere. Freddie Hubbard, Herbie Hancock, Roland Kirk, Larry Cornell, many others put their own sounds into the atmosphere, but this, this music transports me to a realm where there is no age, no race, no ethnicity. I will always be that free thinking, optimistic 20 year old, tripping around NYC with the kind of immunity only youth can confer. My favorite music, from the opening chords from the piano of Lonnie Liston Smith.
I saw Pharoah Sanders At the Auditorium, in Chicago (1973), featuring Leon Thomas and the entire band of musicians. I also saw him play at at 4 other clubs, including Bakers Keyboard lounge in Detroit. I have many albums of all of the musicians from his bands, Leon Thomas, Joe Bonner, Lonnie Liston Smith to name a few.
It doesn't get any better than this! And vocalist Leon Thomas was sublime as always...I have this album, but so nice to hear it on RUclips... I am so very fortunate to have heard, seen and met both of these inspiring and gifted musicians. Thanks for posting these marvelous LEGENDS.
I keep returning to this recording as a reference point for creativity, spirituality and beauty, since its release all those years ago in my youth. Sheer beauty! Listen to how Lonnie Listen Smith nods to Alice Coltrane in his solo. Things were "in the air" in 1969 and this was a watershed for the human movement for peace and beauty. Thank you, creators!
Hum Allah. I listen to this song when I feel down. I listen to this song at the start of my day, it inspires me, makes me feel hopeful, let's me know that all will be alright, as long as I remain ste a fast in my faith in the Lord. Hum Allah.
Pharoah's evocative music has been an ongoing revelation for me since 1970. I was fortunate to catch his unique sound in different venues through the years, from Detroit to San Diego. Sadly, we've lost another jazz master, but Pharoah's profound musical legacy lives on. The journey continues....
Jewels of Thought is an album by the American jazz saxophonist Pharoah Sanders. It was recorded at Plaza Sound Studios in New York City on October 20, 1969, and was released on Impulse! Records in the same year.
Beautiful and spiritual would listen to Pharrell Sanders on my way to college on Saturdays for my football games got me in the right frame of mind what an incredible artist
After My Mom died in '73 when I was 13 YO and My oldest brother turned Me on to alot of Music and I played the crap out of this song while lying in my bed.....I guess it helped Me handle the tremendous gut punch to me and My family that was Mom's death....I'll never forget that time
Sad news today. 'Pharoah Sanders, Saxophonist Who Pushed Jazz Toward the Spiritual, Dead at 81 SEPTEMBER 24, 2022' Had this album in 1969 when I was 16 , this is one of my favorite tracks opening up a whole new world of musical experience. RIP
My mom collected the albums. She has passed on too...RIP Mom. I don't know the condition because I don't have a record player anymore. But one day, In Sha Allah I'll go through them..and take a listen.
Remember my children, in the words of the fantastically freaky hippie Cajun Fox (if he ever said them): “Expand your mind!” “Let your spirit soar!” “Set your freakiness loose!” “Let that freak flag fly, and let it fly HIGH!”
With all due respect, I strongly disagree. Leon Thomas was an amazing vocalist. His vocals fit perfectly with this transcendent tune. Check out his work with Santana as well. Peace.

as soon as the first piano chord comes in I feel a bit more at peace
Saw Pharaoh along with Rashaan Roland Kirk in an old boxing arena, Hartford CT, 1970. White minds vaporized by the bellows of the rogue bull elephant.
RIP to a legend. This my favorite track of his along with Farah and Upper/Lower Egypt 🙏
I saw Pharoah play live in Chicago (My hometown) about 25 years ago at the Jazz showcase
One of my favorite jazz keyboard masters is in the album -- Mr Lonnie Liston Smith 🎼🎹🎹🎹
I saw him at We Out Here, the last gig he did and died a couple of days later. Hum Allah, go with Grace
I was 6 yrs when I first heard this in 1971, A Classic
Pharaoh Sanders... "Thank you"

This is the first album I heard of Pharoah Sanders in 1969 hooked every sence.
Very nice, my dad had the Karna album(1969). I remember him going around the house yodeling/imitating Leon Thomas for decades
Very nice Thank you!!
So divine

That Sax was screaming baby! Like Coltrane on steroids
RIP

mmmMMMmmmMMMmmmMMMmmmMMMmmmMMMmmmMMMmmm!
I wish I could do that. Don't know why. But I still wish.
💜💜💜💜
hum allah
Aktuell wie lange nicht mehr!
I adore Pharaoh Sanders, but Leon's yodeling is effed. Terrible....
Well, it's a much loved classic. It's not supposed to be Tyrol or country music. Go with it as is.
@@timechopper Simply can't do it. It still sucks and entirely destroys the vibe.
With all due respect, I strongly disagree. Leon Thomas was an amazing vocalist. His vocals fit perfectly with this transcendent tune. Check out his work with Santana as well. Peace.
@@gebremenfeskidus9567 I've heard his work with Santana and it was excellent. But I don't recall him yodeling when he sang with Carlos.
