Oh ! 

I have never seen this records, but Pharoah Sanders is one of my very very first great listening experiences in the early 70´s. I don´t know how often I had spinned things like "Karma", "Thembi" "Live at the East", and the very first I had heard might have been Trane´s "Live at Village Vanguarde Again". 
Some of the best music I ever heard. 

And like Shepp, after being in the forefront of avantgarde he re-appeard in the late 70´s early 80´s with straight ahead quartets like the Dexter Gordon Quartet or the Johnny Griffin Quartet would be, but never completly abandoning the free spirits of 60´s avantgarde.

Woke up to more snow. . . over 12" in the last 36 hours, and about 4 inches more to shovel since I last did. Will need to do so in a few hours before meeting in-laws for breakfast. I think we’ll be getting a break for three or four days luckily.

Starting off the day playing

Dave Douglas Quintet featuring Aoife O’Donovan “Be Still”

This one grows on me. I know many of these “hymns” . . . and I begin to like these arrangements more as I listen more.

Cedar Walton was simply an outstanding jazz pianist and also a very fine composer.,
