This exceptional live document finds legendary free jazz saxophonist Pharoah
Sanders collaborating with cornetist Rob Mazurek and members of the Sao Paulo
Underground and Chicago Underground Duo. Mazurek takes a leading role for the
most part, joined by Sanders in his regular volcanic, spiritual state of
playing and supported dutifully by percussionist Maurício Takara, drummer Chad
Taylor, bassist Matt Lux, and multi-instrumentalist Guilherme Granado. The disc
tends toward the more experimental and tumultuous side of things, with
processed synth sounds clashing with the explosive organic instrumentation in a
way that brings to mind Sun Ra's rudimentary synth experimentation on his
early-'70s Saturn Records output. Over the course of the more than an hour-long
set, the group explores moody bass grooves, glitchy electronic tinkering that
occasionally borders on noise, and a kind of high-energy free expression close
in spirit to the kind Sanders pioneered in the mid-'60s with Coltrane, Ayler,
Shepp, and other free music royalty.
