O.K. I admit that my clip of Pharaoh Sanders singing was not that great. So for the disappointed Sanders fans here is something you might really like: Pharaoh Sanders guesting with the McCoy Tyner Trio at the Estival Jazz in Lugano on July 3 1985. Besides Pharaoh and McCoy you get to see and hear Avery Sharpe on bass and Louis Hayes on drums. But beware: At the beginning the sound is not too good – it gets better soon though.
Enjoy!
Going through Otto’s videos I found footage of Pharoah Sanders playing at the Kulturwerkstatt Kaserne in Basel in autumn 1999. If someone out there knows the exact day, it would be nice if you could let me know.
I am not 100 percent sure about the personnel, but it looks like the others are:
William Henderson: keyboards / Alex Blake: b /Hamid Drake dr.
Of course Hamid Drake is a definite. Please excuse the rather rough edits, it looks like the missing footage is lost. Enjoy!
