  • Description

    180g audiophile vinyl reissue, 2LP set housed in a gatefold sleeve, remastering by Cicely Baston at Alchemy/Air Mastering, Lyndhurst Hall, London.

    "A two-LP set on Theresa, Rejoice features Pharoah Sanders in excellent form in 1981. Sanders sounds much more mellow than he had a decade earlier, often improvising in a style similar to late-'50s John Coltrane, particularly on "When Lights Are Low," "Moments Notice," and "Central Park West." The personnel changes on many of the selections and includes such top players as pianists Joe Bonner and John Hicks, bassist Art Davis, drummers Elvin Jones and Billy Higgins, vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, trombonist Steve Turre, trumpeter Danny Moore, a harpist, and (on "Origin" and "Central Park West") five vocalists. The music always holds one's interest, making this one of Sanders' better later recordings." - Scott Yanow, AllMusic

    "A vinyl reissue of a forgotten gem from the revered saxophonist's extensive catalogue. Pure Pleasure is a record label devoted to the reverential appreciation of the vinyl product - everything from the record itself to the album's cover artwork and sleeve notes are all viewed by Pure Pleasure as elements to be cherished for the complete album experience." - **** UK Vibe
