If you think you know Pharoah Sanders, think again. Across the thirty-seven minutes of 1971's groove-laden Black Unity, frenetic Afro-rhythms collide with the familiar sound of Joe Bonner's piano, with bountiful and manic percussion plucked from the world's musical history. Of course, Pharaoh's sax rides with urgency and purpose across it all, a cacophony of spiritual sound and almost-chaos that somehow just works, and works absolutely. - Flying Out
