Max Roach - We Insist! Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite - LP

180g Tip-On Jacket, Remastered by Bernie Grundman

An avant-garde masterpiece and a work of collective improvisation, We Insist! Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite directly addresses the racial and political struggles of its day and remains one of the most important artistic statements of the Civil Rights Movement. Recorded in 1960 just months after the Greensboro sit-ins, the suite moves through African-American history from slavery to emancipation to African independence, featuring Abbey Lincoln, Coleman Hawkins, Eric Dolphy, Booker Little, and Olatunji. Produced by Nat Hentoff, whose original liner notes are included.
