Limited restock. ESP-Disk present a reissue of
Pharoah Sanders Quintet
, originally released in 1965. Recorded on September 10, 1964, prior to his well-known association with
John Coltrane
, this eponymous album (later renamed
Pharoah's First
) is the debut release of the iconic tenor saxophonist,
Pharoah Sanders
. (Yes, there are some spelling oddities here: the artist -- birth name
Ferrell
-- only later changed the spelling from the standard Pharaoh to the more personalized Pharoah). With one foot in mainstream jazz -- pianist
Jane Getz
had played with
Charles Mingus
-- and the other, tentatively at times, in the avant-garde, this is a fascinating glimpse of Sanders's style before he wielded the unremitting fierceness of his playing with Coltrane and the modal mysticism of his later solo albums on Impulse. Interestingly, in recent years he has deployed a more polished version of this sort of avant-flavored bop, bringing his career full circle and strongly suggesting that the hybrid heard here was not due to any failure of nerve on his debut but rather was the cornerstone of his conception. ESP-Disk has issued this album under three different covers; for its 21st-century reissue on vinyl, they have chosen to use the second and most beautiful. It is augmented with liner notes by a current ESP-Disk artist, tenor saxophonist
Ras Moshe Burnett
of
The Red Microphone
, who can be heard accompanying
Amina Baraka
on their eponymous release (ESPDISK 5021CD, 2017). Personnel: Pharoah Sanders - tenor saxophone;
Stan Foster
- trumpet; Jane Getz - piano;
William Bennett
- bass;
Marvin Pattillo
- percussion.
