Ahmed Abdul-Malik’s relationship with jazz was sacred in every sense, but less enigmatic; he was clear in his intention to make music with and for his creator. To know Abdul-Malik’s music is to know his devotion.
‘’I’m thankful for the privilege of having been given some creative powers,'' Abdul-Malik told Dan Morgenstern in the album’s liner notes. ‘’In music,'' he continued, ‘’it is a matter of vibrations — to master them, then try to find the right frequencies to transmit them to others . . . like a sender.''
