I bought this on vinyl and then spent more to buy the digital. There is a question on Songs of our lives which asks what objectively is the best song ever made. It's tongue in cheek but I think Phil has done it with this.

This is my absolute favorite album of all time, words can not even begin to describe how much I love it. It nails the concept of dementia as an album perfectly 100/10. I don't know if I could find anything better than this.

Even at 80 years old, Pharoah Sanders played his tenor sax with the conviction of a gospel preacher. Every second of this album is arrestingly beautiful. As far as I'm concerned, this is essential listening for anyone who considers themselves a fan of music.
