Featuring Pharoah Sanders & Black Harold

In 1964, Sun Ra asked the young tenor saxophonist Pharaoh Sanders to join him while Arkestra mainstay John Gilmore was busy working with Paul Bley, Andrew Hill, and Art Blakey. Before the recording's original release in 1976, Sun Ra stated, "It should be very interesting to the world to show what the pre-Coltrane Pharoah Sanders was like." This release also features little-heard flautist Black Harold (Harold Murray), who takes the lead on the track "The Voice of Pan," continuing into "Dawn Over Israel." Additionally, bassist Alan Silva provides some fine bass work.
