The live version from his 1982 live album is the best version of that song I've heard. John Hicks on Piano, Walter Booker on Bass, and Idris Muhammad on drums. Tight...
As far as Sanders goes, he's my second favorite sax player. I love the sqwalk. His work with Leon Thomas is the most accessible and some of my favorite jazz vocal work on any record. I have a pretty decent Pharoah Sanders record collection as well.

All original presses. Still looking for Tauhid and most of his late 70's and 80's stuff. He was also a fantastic element of Alice Coltrane's lineup, especially on Ptah and Journey In Satchidananda. Dude also played with John Coltrane on some of his more free records and was in the Jazz Composers Orchestra.
