"The Best of Pharoah Sanders" double LP Impulse 1972 - - Beautiful!

What first struck me was that the quality of these recordings and the pressing are excellent! I have most of the music on CD's and a couple individual LP's, but this is a great set. I actually shelled out $25 for a near-mint WLP of this set and I am not at all disappointed.

If you're not familiar with Sanders' music, you might want to dig into this great tenor player. His style is more along the lines of Albert Ayler, Sun Ra or Coltrane (whose band he played in for a while, just before Coltrane's death) but it often loops back to a strong, heavy funk groove. His songs with Leon Thomas on vocals are amazing. Very wonderful player.
