William Hooker + Sabir Mateen ‎– Dharma

Percussion and reeds duet released 33 years after Interstellar Space was released and 40 years after it recorded. Meaning Dharma was released at a time when adherents to the Saint John William Coltrane African Orthodox Church were meditating on the significance of humanity having lived without Coltrane’s physical manifestation for, again, 40 years - the same amount of time He graced our earth, 40 years.

Hooker, as always is bombastic and exciting. He also will briefly hook into a groove in a way that’s effective but would’ve been inappropriate for Rashied Ali on IS. Sabir Mateen, who was 60 at the time, still correctly echoes late period Coltrane with dashes of Dolphy and some squawking à la manière de the highly influential Kaoru Abe, who died of a drug overdose at the age of 29 in 1978.

Dharma was recorded live at CBGB’s in 2004.
