Impeccably produced by David Chesky, the b...

Cantor’s songs on Sex Without Bodies, the group’s Chesky Records debut, are witty, cinematic, erudite, cultured, and peppered with literary references.

Featuring tenor titans Pharoah Sanders and George Coleman, the session balances hard-swinging bop with profound spiritual depth. Kabsha ...
