Sanders, Pharoah

Oh Lord, Let Me Do No Wrong
Hard To Find 1987 Original In Shrink. Hole Punch. Features Leon Thomas. “Although Pharoah Sanders Was Originally Considered A Firebrand, Thanks To His Wild Early Free Jazz Work In The '60s, His Later Records Are Actually More In The Tradition Of Players Like His One-Time Leader John Coltrane And, Especially, Rahsaan Roland Kirk. The Title Track From This 1987 Session Could Have Been On Any Of Kirk's Atlantic Albums, A Mixture Of Gospel Sway And Free Jazz Honk That Builds Into A Hypnotic Swoon Under Leon Thomas' Rich Baritone Vocals. (Thomas Also Appears On His Own Composition, The Blues "If It Wasn't For A Woman," And The Closing "Next Time You See Me.") On The Extended, Relaxed Take Of Coltrane's "Equinox," Sanders Doesn't Try To Copy His Former Boss' Phrasing, But There's Certainly A Coltrane-Like Elegance To Sanders' Lyrical Solo. In Fact, Sanders' Playing On The Standard "Polka Dots And Moonbeams," Which Also Features A Lovely Vince Guaraldi-Like Piano Solo By William S. Henderson III, Is Downright Pretty. Oh Lord, Let Me Do No Wrong Is A Mellow And Peaceful Set By A Player Who No Longer Needs To Make Noise; Whether Old-School Fans Will Appreciate This Is Debatable.” Stewart Mason, AMG.
