• Track Listing

Pharoah Sanders’ 1969 album, his third as a leader, is the one that still defines him as a musician to this day! Finally filling the spiritual jazz void created by the death of John Coltrane, Sanders delivers the goods on the album’s two tracks: the 32-minute The Creator Has a Master Plan and the five-and-a-half-minute Colours. The band, one of Sanders’ finest, features vocalist Leon Thomas, drummer Billy Hart, Julius Watkins, James Spaulding, a pre-funk Lonnie Liston Smith, Richard Davis, Reggie Workman on bass, and Nathaniel Bettis on percussion. A truly exhilarating listening experience!
