1969 Improvisational Jazz Classic on Limited Edition 180g Marbled Color Vinyl!

Second of the Art Ensemble's renowned trio of albums for BYG/Actuel, Message to Our Folks is a masterclass of improvisation, inspired by but also transcending established black music genres. Recorded at Studio Saravah August 1969, the title referred to African-American audiences back home, who would recognize many of the gospel, funk, bebop and even rock influences the Art Ensemble draw upon here. Whilst they'd evolved from out of the collision of free jazz, radical theatre and Black Nationalism happening in U.S. during the late '60s, the band really came into their own after relocating to Paris. The enthusiastic welcome they were given by French audiences revitalized them and inspired many unforgettable performances and recordings, including this classic Message to Our Folks.
