Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in Paris, 'Uhuru na umoja' captures the ecstatic, high-velocity blowouts characteristic of the American free jazz expatriate community. Frank Wright's fiercely energetic tenor saxophone playing is met with equally ferocious rhythmic support, yielding a profoundly manic and spiritual session.
