Todays CTI album you overlooked.
Randy Weston's "Blue Moses" - it's true, #RandyWeston wanted to play acoustic for this album but #CreedTaylor insisted on electric. Randy wasn't pleased at the time, but in his autobiography agrees that this album set him up to pay off his debts and was a major contributor to his later work.

#NowPlaying Randy Weston - Uhuru Africa (Roulette, 1977).

The title track, a suite in four movements, is monumental : a 24-piece big band playing Melba Liston’s arrangements of Weston’s music, fueled by African rhythms, with poetry and lyrics by Langston Hughes.

With Freddie Hubbard, Yusef Lateef, Sahib Shihab, Cecil Payne, Kenny Burrell, Ron Carter, Max Roach, Babatunde Olatunji and so many more great musicians…

French pressing.
