Africa is an album led by saxophonist Pharoah Sanders recorded in 1987 and released on the Dutch Timeless label. This album marked somewhat of a backtrack for the saxophonist, as he had frequently become identified with much more traditional playing".

Pharoah ‘Farrell’ Sanders (born 1940) is a leading figure in the world of jazz and one of last living legends with connections to players like Sun Ra and John Coltrane. His tenor saxophone playing has earned him royal status amongst free jazz players, critics and collectors. Originally Sanders was interested in urban blues music, but his high school teacher exposed him to jazz and this took Farrell in an entirely new direction. On the album we are presenting you today (Africa from 1987) Sanders plays with an all-star line-up consisting of Idris Muhammad, John Hicks and Curtis Lundy. Muhammad brings his trademark tight sense of timekeeping, but with a looseness that we love – and Lundy’s warm soulful bass does more than enough to give the set a sound bottom- all this while Hick’s free lyrical piano works nicely with Sander’s spiritual horn.

Drums – Idris Muhammed. Producer – Peter Huijts. Tenor Saxophone – Pharoah Sanders. Recorded at Studio 44, Monster, Holland March 11, 1987. Engineer – Max Bolleman. Recorded 11th March 1987 at Studio 44, Monster, Holland.

Pianist John Hicks is in perfect form and contributes mightily to the success of the session. Most will probably prefer the original Coltrane to Sanders' imitations, but Africa is nonetheless a joyous and worthy tribute to one of the giants of jazz. This album marked somewhat of a backtrack for the saxophonist, as he had frequently become identified with much more traditional playing.

Great reissue of Africa by Balades Sonores. From start to finish this double album is so rich in musical content, production too. Orange vinyl is a great touch. Sound quality and packaging all excellent. Only 100 copies on orange and really happy to own one.
