Description
2021 reissue, 12″ LP, Black Jazz Records/Real Gone Music. Black vinyl.
Of all the many cutting edge and pioneering records put out by the iconic Black Jazz label, Doug Carn’s is one of the most well known and widely acclaimed. Although everything he did turned to gold, this one reached even more impressive heights with Doug himself at the helm of the composition on the 1973 release. It sees him integrate Jean Carn’s majestically soulful and heavenly vocals deeper into the music which was so stylishly delivered by trumpeter Olu Dara, bassist Walter Booker, and drummer Ira Williams. The standout track will always be the rapturous ‘Power & The Glory’ but all the rest are frankly just as good.
