Pharaoh Sanders, “The Creator Has a Master Plan”. Amazing! Thanks.
What other hat wearing tenor player had a tenor tone later in his career almost exactly like Pharoah’s? Both came up in the “free jazz” scene around the same time (mid-late ‘60s). Interestingly, his tone was fairly conventional at first and for the time:

Gato then went to a tone concept like Pharoah’s. However, he used it to move to a much more accessible genre: World Music/Latin pop. Usually works the other way around as far as tone goes, but it worked for him.

Go in with an open mind. Otherwise, you may not come out 😊
