Description
ARTIST / TITLE : HARRY WHITAKER "BLACK RENAISSANCE (BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT)"
LABEL : BAYSTATE (#RVJ-6006)
CONDITION (Record/Cover) : EX/VG+
COMMENT : Original Japanese first pressing of this ultra rare LP, recorded in New York in 1976, and only released in Japan at that time. A mythical and outstanding session produced, arranged and directed by the Roy Ayers's keyboardist, Harry Whitaker. Featuring Woody Shaw on trumpet, Azar Lawrence on saxes, Buster Williams on bass, Mtume on percussion amongst others (full list below). This record is virtually impossible to find, it hardly ever changes hands even in Japan, where many serious collectors have never been able to get it. A spiritual soul jazz masterpiece!
This is a nice copy that comes with its original insert. The vinyl is in excellent condition, clean and shiny. The cover is clean and in solid shape, it presents some slight signs of wear around seams, no splits, no tears.
