lyrics
when Mary was younger, her mom
put a curse on her cunt
& she taught her to sink like a stone
but these tender walls-
they can stretch, they can breach & they can grow
& Mary now is getting softer on her own
& here my soul will know me as blessed
here my New One; bring fear to His mercy
He fills up the hungry with good things
& He sends the rich away
when Mary was different, her mom
made a garden out of weeds
& she told her to grow like a tree
& oh, mom was proud,
full of might, like a priest on sunday morn
never seeing Mary’s garden grown
& here my soul will know me as blessed
here my New One; bring fear to His mercy
He fills up the hungry with good things
& He sends the rich away
So happy to see a new album from this band. I've long been a fan of Mazurek and Parker's work in Tortoise, on top of the CUQ... Anyhow, if you're curious about contemporary jazz, this is a terrific place to start.

My god, what an absolutely incredible Suite. I'll admit, I've struggled to get into Pharoah Sanders due to diving headfirst into some of his most challenging catalogue and that never worked. This is the perfect place to restart. Floating Points is new for me and I can honestly say I've never heard synthesizer music this lush and organic before. the LSO is just perfect. This is one of those albums that any serious music fan needs in their life. The perfect swan song for the great Pharaoh! 5/5 ClassyMusicSnob
Long-form trance-y rhythmic jams, with a fun shambling edge, sounding like a cross between music from Africa's Sahel region crossed with a Tom Waits instrumental... Jascha Narveson
