Radiohead cover/inspired by from the Comet is Coming? It's good!

I'll have to watch for that, thanks!

I actually meant the one you played, Pyramid... so I'm guessing Radiohead's Pyramid Song - but a quick google search has not verified this guess, and I may also be misremembering how that sounds. The Comet is Coming track was certainly very Radoihead-ish in any case!

Ah OK. I didn't connect that at all, but I'll have to give the Radiohead song another listen and see.

Jeff, I’m pretty sure I read someplace that the Pyramid/Radiohead connection is real. Can’t seem to find it now, though.

Hey Rob, I know I said I'd only play one hour of Pharoah Sanders' music today, but I'm actually playing two. All early Impulse recordings.

Make sure to tune in next week for Rob Bitschofsky's more comprehensive listen to the incomparable Pharaoh Sanders. Rest in Power.

The more Pharoah the merrier, in my opinion! We’ll send him off in high style with five hours over two weeks. Or even more, if Manmohan adds some the week after next.

Digging the third hour. Thanks Neil!
