Pharoah Sanders - Moon Child
Year: 1990
Label: Timeless
Total time: 52:09
Bitrate: mp3 320 kbps

By this point in his career, Sanders had largely withdrawn from the kind of screeching avant-gardism on which he at first staked his reputation. The opening 'Moon Child,' with its attractively spacy vocals, is reminiscent of the days of 'The Creator Has a Master Plan,' but this version sounds too contrived to rival the classic earlier recording. The mood is subdued throughout and the choice of tunes definitely on the conservative side ( 'All or Nothing at All' and 'The Night Has a Thousand Eyes,' among the six tracks ). William Henderson is lovely on piano, while the drummer ( Eddie Moore ) and percussionist ( Cheikh Tidiane Fale ) keep to the quiet side. The results may have originally disappointed some of Sanders' fans, but with time the saxophonist clearly reinvented himself as a more traditional improviser capable of thoughtful and pensive deliberations. ~ Steven Loewy, AMG
