Don Pullen – Healing Force (Black Saint, 1976)

Don Pullen (p)

Recorded on October 23, 1976

Reissued as part of Don Pullen: The Complete Remastered Recordings on Black Saint & Soul Note (2012).


From this listener's point of view, among Don Pullen's most impressive recordings are the two solo piano discs he made for Black Saint, Healing Force and Evidence of Things Unseen (1984). 

The music on the Healing Force is vital, soulful, and personal.  It ranges from quietly inward to pounding, Taylor-esque dissonances.
