This is a musical work for the text by Ishmael Reed, joint with Kip Hanrahan, Carla Bley, Taj Mahal, David Murray, Allen Toussaint, Steve Swallow, Billy Hart, and many more musicians from the contemporary/free jazz world. It is the crystallization of Afro-American music, with elements of various styles such as jazz, soul, blues, rock, Afro, Latin, etc., blended together beautifully. Taj Mahal's soulful vocals are the best on this album.
