Like "Kendang', 'Dawning' spectacularly showcases the jazy, impassioned saxophone of Pharoah Sanders, veteran of the 60s New Thing, indeed one of the last active links with that incendiary era. Persuading Sanders to do so was a coup in itself. "He was in London and we went to meet him - we thought he wasn't into it, but it turned out that we were being stalled by one his agents," explains Alex. 'He'd actually been up for it; he'd waited in his hotel for us. So we met up with him in New York and recorded the two tracks over three hours. He's a legend on one hand, but as far as he's concerned himself, he's a gigging musician. He's just stuck with his music and got better at it, it's a really inspiring thing.'
