  • Description

    Meticulously remastered & includes a 28-page booklet with new notes by Marty Ehrlich, complemented by several stills from a 30-minute film of an early '70s dance performance featuring complete performances of Dogon A.D. and Rites with Hemphill, Baikida Carroll, Phillip Wilson, and John Hicks. This recording, made on a cold February day in St. Louis in a studio with little heat, has lit up the musical world for so many for so long. It is wonderful to have it available again in this iteration for a new generation of listeners. This, at long last, is the definitive edition of this seminal jazz masterwork. "If I have anything to contribute to this art form . . . It's a voice of our culture. This is a voice right out of them cotton fields--this ain't out of the conservatory. This is out of the neighborhood. And that's where my impetus comes from ...I have seen it from the bottom up."--Julius Hemphill.
