Captured live on November 17th, 1975 at the Maison de la Radio's Studio 104 in Paris, Love Is Here: The Complete Paris 1975 ORTF Recordings documents Pharoah Sanders at a remarkable peak of his powers. Backed by an extraordinary ensemble — Danny Mixon on piano and organ, Calvin Hill on bass, and Greg Bandy on drums — Sanders delivers a deeply expressive and stylistically expansive performance before a live and enthusiastic Parisian audience.
This double LP presents the complete recordings from that historic night in full, offering an immersive journey through Sanders' singular blend of spiritual intensity and swinging vitality. The set spans a wide emotional range, from a meditative pipe organ improvisation and the sweeping three-part suite that gives the album its name, to a driving take on "Pharoah's Blues" and a transcendent reading of Billy Eckstine's "I Want to Talk About You," making this an essential listen for fans of spiritual jazz and lovers of great live recordings.
