    Super deep, super rare Last Poet-vibe  meets Doo-Wap corner harmonies meets 60s Black Power album! Black radical poet/writer Leroi Jones (Amiri Baraka)'s one-off project that mixes all these elements in an amazing blend of deep,deep music. Originally released in New York in 1968 on Baraka's own Jihad label (which also put out the Sun Ra meets Amiri Baraka's Black Mass CD), this is a timely reissue. One of the rarest albums featured in Freedom, Rhythm and Sound! Super cool!
