What an unexpected review. I can't tell you how much this music means to me. My dad has Alzheimer's and recently moved to a memory care facility. We have always bonded through music, so I bought him a record player for his room and some records. This was one of the first records I bought him (he's been a fan of Pharoah since the 70s but hadn't heard this). He listens to it all the time now, it seems to be one of the few things that brings him comfort. I'm so grateful to Pharoah for creating such beautiful music before he left us, and that this music allows me to still connect to my dear dad. Thanks Smags for giving this one a listen. I needed this.

What a beautiful testament to the power and love of music. If I know anything about alzheimers it's that your father could have EASILY never recognized Pharoah in this album, as it is new to him and not a memory from a while ago. But the spirit of Pharaoh persists, all these years later, through stylistic changes etc. And your father still recognized and connected with that familiar essence. How beautiful, for all involved ❤❤❤🙏 ❤❤❤

Although Pharoah passed shortly after this album came out, I was very lucky to to see Floating Points and the LA Philharmonic perform this piece in its entirety at the Hollywood Bowl with Shabaka Hutchings (of The Comet Is Coming). One of the best live concert experiences ever. Also for the next Jazz album, I really gotta rep Headhunters by Herbie Hancock. 40 minutes of funky goodness, one of the best fusion albums ever

YES my dude. So glad you have dipped your toes into jazz. Jazz music is true expression of the soul. Here are three classic jazz albums: "Kind of Blue" - Miles Davis "Portrait in Jazz" - Bill Evans "Chet Baker Sings" - Chet Baker There are so many more though. Jazz music was popular in the 1920s and spans decades with many evolutions, many ebbs and flows. It became even wilder after "Bitches Brew."In my opinion the best way to discover new jazz is to check out the discographies of jazz artists you like.

For me the "meaning" of this album is an intergenerational conversation through music. You have classical, jazz, and electronic music in one seamless piece. Pharoah Sanders was in his 80s at the very end of his career while Floating Points (who composed the work) is in his mid 30s. The title "Promises" could refer to the what we owe and give eachother through the generations. The promises we make and keep down the line. Sanders was an intensely spiritual and family based man. He spent his last years surrounded by his church and family, using music to honor god and connect with his loved ones.

Definitely an interesting choice for your first jazz listen lol you should peep some Miles Davis, Kind of Blue is a great intro to Miles and Jazz in general. Really chill too. In A Silent Way by him is amazing too though and is more jazz fusion with elements of ambient to it. I think you'd enjoy either of these. Keep up the great work Smags! You a G for this one.
