Heavenly Sweetness release 'The Rich are Only Defeated When Running for their Lives' from "one of the UK's most exciting and innovative voices, poet, novelist, musician and lecturer Anthony Joseph was born in Trinidad and has lived in the UK since 1989. Described as ‘the leader of the black avant-garde in Britain’, his written work and performance occupies a space between surrealism, Jazz and the rhythms of Caribbean speech and music."

Conscious, spiritual jazz music delivered with a powerful message that resonates with these times. Highly recommeded!
