Historical Jazz from some of the most influential musicians in Black Music. This recording was originally recorded in 1968 and was previously only available on vinyl. It is one of the most sought after recordings from Phil Cohran, who played with Sun Ra and was one of the founders of the AACM. Copies of the original vinyl sell for hundreds of dollars. Musicians on this recording include Don Myrick and Louis Satterfield, who went on to play with Earth, Wind, & Fire, Chicago guitar legend Pete Cosey, who went on to play with Miles Davis, and the great Master Henry Gibson who went on to play with Curtis Mayfield. This recording captures all of these wonderful musicians as well as others at their very best! Packaged in cardboard sleeve.
Heard nearly four decades after its 1968 performance, The Malcolm X Memorial (A Tribute in Music) remains an ambitious, expansive achievement. The 12-piece ensemble opens with their vision of what a childhood Malcolm heard, played bluesily by none other than Pete Cosey on guitar. The conga-beating, chant-enriched "Malcolm X" is, in composer Phil Cohran's eyes, a musical portrait of Malcolm "awakening and embracing of Black values," as the original liner note claims. "Always talking brotherhood/White man you just ain't no good," goes the chant, and the music churns alongside. The tribute's second half is where the vision emerges: Charles Handy plays a fabulous musette solo to capture Malcolm's Eastern turn, and the band grooves via Bob Crowder's drumming. This is a great, audio verite snapshot of Chicago's musical genius, from composer/bandleader Phil Cohran on cornet to Cosey and Crowder and baritone saxist Donald Myrick. Interestingly, the funky turns in Malcolm go hand-in-hand with the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians' aesthetics--wherein Muhal Richard Abrams and the Art Ensemble of Chicago were vigorously exploring free improvisation. Right here on Malcolm X is an aural illustration of how Chicago sits at the musical crossroads. --Andrew Bartlett
