Includes the bonus track "Doktor Pitt", which is not on the original vinyl release. "This album features Pharoah Sanders playing some no- nonsense tenor in a quartet with pianist John Hicks, bassist Walter Booker, and drummer Idris Muhammad. Sanders performs "It's Easy to Remember" (in a style very reminiscent of early-'60s John Coltrane), an original blues, and two of his compositions, including the passionate "You've Got to Have Freedom." The musicianship is at a high level and, although Sanders does not shriek as much as one might hope (the Trane- ish influence was particularly strong during this relatively mellow period), he is in fine form." - by Scott Yanow, AllMusic
