(and sixth LP overall) is a mélange of some of his music’s most alluring qualities. Gutsy free-jazz improvisation, memorable melodies, soulful open-ended vamps, widely varied instrumentation: Sanders knits all of this into one harmonious statement. Thembi marks pianist Lonnie Liston Smith’s last appearance with Sanders as well as his first playing Fender Rhodes electric piano, on which he lights up his original piece “Astral Traveling.” In this electric setting, Sanders’ soprano sax isn’t terribly far off from the sound of Wayne Shorter with Weather Report (their eponymous debut came out the same month, May of 1971). “Red, Black & Green” is the tenor sax blowout of the set, with Michael White on violin and Sanders layering more than one tenor track. Bassist Cecil McBee gets a full unaccompanied solo on “Love,” while “Thembi” and “Morning Prayer” epitomize Sanders’ penchant for extended vamps over simple, colorful chord progressions. The latter, co-written by Sanders and Smith, finds the leader beginning on the harplike koto before moving to alto flute and finally tenor, backed by a plethora of African percussion. With “Bailophone Dance,” the whole band becomes a percussion ensemble, joining drummer Roy Haynes in an exuberant send-off with Sanders on fife, cow horn, brass bell, and the West African balafon, heard most clearly during the long fade-out to the end.

爱这张,熟到哼出来那种爱。噪的部分噪得有理有据,美的部分美得一塌糊涂。好久以前在一date家放,red black and green前奏一上来他说这什么玩意儿,迅速关了页面。我心想真可惜,你永远不会知道这首展开得有多好。后来我们的关系也很快结束了。

法老好听得很舒服的一张,开头骚,结尾黑非洲,每首都嗲。

法老是继Eric Dolphy 后又一大神,这里头的音乐只能用天马行空来形容。开头一曲《Astral Traveling》迷幻到家;最后一曲《Bailophone Dance》的打击乐和笛子立马就非洲部落了。
