Customer Reviews of Live at the East
an underrated classic finally finds it's way to cd It has been a long wait, but finally this outstanding music is on cd. Healing Song is the definitive song from Pharoah's association with Impulse. Forget about The Creator Has A Master Plan, this song is the essence of what Pharoah was about. The title is apt, as the twenty plus minute track is a whirling dirvish of percussion, acoustic bass, chanting and Pharoah dealing his circular breathing deluxe over, under and with a beautiful and "healing" melody. This track has stayed constantly in my head for the past 26 years, ever since I first discovered the original lp in a cutout bin during my college days. The rest of the music is good, but the title track is indeed like a religious experience. If you have enjoyed any of Pharoah's offerings, you really need to check out this one and be HEALED!!!
At last...after being unavailable for decades!!!!!
Twenty three or 24 years ago I heard "Healing Song" played on a college radio station in Moscow, ID. of all places. I had been taping the broadcast because the DJ played a wonderfully eclectic blend of obscure music from the fringes of the Jazz genre. "Healing Song", the first cut on this ramastered CD, is for me, the finest recording of Pharoah Sanders' early post-Coltrane period. It is a gem...and aptly named. Sanders's tenor opens with a strong individual proclamation. That voice plunges head-on into a cacophany of percussion, bass (Cecil McBee and Stanley Clarke!) flute, trumpet and voices that range from frenetic, free improvisation, to reaching an exultant resolution of the highest order...and we, the listeners, are carried along on this healing journey. The contribution of pianist Joseph Bonner, who worked with Sanders from time to time into the 1980's, deserves special mention here. He is listed as co-composer, and his ringing keyboards are the perfect match for the ensemble sound achieved here. This music is not for everyone, but Sanders fans will find resolution and fullfullment with this important live recording (1971-72?). I only wish the liner notes were in English (as well as the Japanese)....But that's alright...the music speak for itself, and I've been waiting over two decades to get my hands on this recording!!!!!
