Created in the aftermath of John Coltrane’s passing after years helping shape his spiritually transcendent late-period sound, Pharoah Sanders’ spiritual jazz masterpiece carried Coltrane’s search for transcendence into a more hypnotic and meditative form, grounding free-jazz intensity in repetition, groove and communal spiritual uplift.
Widely interpreted as a response to the Vietnam War and the social turbulence of the late 60s, the record channels healing, peace and cosmic spirituality centred around the 32-minute epic ‘The Creator Has A Master Plan,’ which is regarded as the defining statement in the cosmic jazz movement.
