SAM SHEPHERD:
Pharoah...
PHAROAH SANDERS:
Were you asleep? I'm sorry...



No no... I was listening...and dreaming...and listening to music in my head...
PHAROAH:

I'm always listening...to the sounds around me...and playing, in my mind...and sometimes I dream.

What were you


PHAROAH:

SAM:
Okay. Yeah. I think you're playing is beautiful.
