"Black Jazz", one of the three leading spiritual jazz labels of the 70s, along with "Strata East" and "Tribe".
Following the reissue of all the albums from 2020 to 2021, a fan-favourite compilation album of classic songs that were cut as singles at the time is now available on this single disc!
The compilation is based on 10 singles selected and released by label head Gene Russell, and was compiled with the aim of creating a sampler that would allow first-time listeners to get in touch with the essence of black jazz.
The album contains a total of 15 tracks, including two single edits prepared for this album.
