Jazz legend Pharoah Sanders has died at the age of 81.
Born Ferrell Sanders in Little Rock, Arkansas, he left for Oakland, California at the age of 19, finding the city of his birth too limiting as a musician. Here he met members of the jazz avant-garde, playing with Dewey Redman who would eventually be part of Ornette Coleman’s legendary quartet. He also befriended John Coltrane at this time, though they did not work together.
He soon moved to New York City and fell in with bandleader/interplanetary traveler Sun Ra, occasionally playing with the Sun Ra Arkestra. It was at Ra’s suggestion that he use the name Pharaoh. Though Sanders recorded with Sun Ra, that material would not be released until years later. His first album , on a small label, impressed John Coltrane, who invited him to join his group. Sanders was part of the murderer’s row of 11 legends who journeyed to Rudy Van Gelder’s studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey on June 28, 1965.
