A key document from the influential Los Angeles pianist and community leader Horace Tapscott and his Pan-Afrikan Peoples Arkestra. 'The Call' is a powerful and soulful session that blends post-bop with a deep, spiritual, and Afro-centric consciousness. The music is a testament to Tapscott's vision of jazz as a community-based art form, a powerful expression of Black identity and collective creation.
