Pharoah Sanders - Izipho Zam (My Gifts) Vinyl LP

Pharoah Sanders’ Izipho Zam (My Gifts) is a landmark jazz masterpiece. Recorded in 1969, two years after John Coltrane’s passing, and released in 1973 on Strata-East, the album features a 13-member ensemble, including Sonny Sharrock, Lonnie Liston Smith, Cecil McBee, and Leon Thomas. Blending Eastern influences with expansive jazz, Sanders’ brilliance shines on tracks like “Prince of Peace,” highlighting Thomas’ distinctive vocals, and the 28-minute title track, an immersive exploration of dissonance and harmony enriched by West African percussion and meditative chants.
