Pharoah Sanders' Moon Child was released in 1990 and bookended a decade of musical soul searching for Sanders. The acclaimed free jazz player is known to have a raw and abrasive sound but reinvented himself on this album as a more traditional improviser capable of thoughtful deliberations. Moon Child is a grand old time throughout, and Sanders has never been more eminently sing-along-able as he is on it's title track. The record was co-written with Horace Silver, George Gershwin and Abdullah Ibrahim and recorded with William Henderson, Stafford James, Eddie Moore, and Cheikh Tidiane Fall. Moon Child by Pharoah Sanders is available as a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on translucent red colored vinyl and is printed on heavy cardboard with linen laminate finish.
