Release Date: 9th August
One of the jewels in the Sanders celebrated discography it's at once spiritual and uplifting and at others free, manic, funky and full of the chaotic rhythm of life. An essential jazz record in our ears.
Released in 1971 on Impulse and recorded with two different ensembles, Thembi marked a departure from the slowly developing, side-long, mantra-like grooves Sanders had been pursuing for much of his solo career. Instead, it offers an intriguingly wide range of relatively concise ideas resulting in something of an anomaly in Sanders' prime period. This Verve By Request title is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Third Man in Detroit.
