Last night was the first of two extended Strangers in Paradise journeys — 3.5 hours of deep sonic explorations 🎶

With more time, we stretched out across genres: from Spiritual Jazz to new-wave Turkish, Afro-Cuban and Brazilian rhythms, through to blissed out Balearic gems 🌴

And we’re not done yet — next week we go again with another 3.5hr ride. Got a track you’re dying to hear, a shout-out, or something wild for us to drop? Drop a comment below and it just might happen!

🎷 Strangers in Paradise - Show #15
📻 Radio Northern Beaches 88.7 & 90.3FM
⏳ Fridays, 7-8pm

It was a true honour to celebrate the music of Pharoah Sanders, one of spiritual jazz’s most profound and enduring voices. Though we only touched on the breadth of his remarkable catalogue, this is surely the beginning of a continuing journey through his work. For now, the music found its place alongside a cool, luminous Friday evening by the sea.

Tracklist:

Kazuko (instumental)
Greetings to Saud (Brother McCoy Tyner)
Astral Traveling
You've got to have freedom
Love is everywhere
Colors
Morning Tala

As Pharoah so aptly put it, “The Creator has a master plan, peace and happiness for every man.”
