专辑介绍
by Rob Theakston
Having already achieved varying degrees of commercial and critical success with Roy Ayers' Ubiquity project and Robert Flack, Harry Whitaker went into the studio to record Black Renaissance: Body, Mind & Spirit, a tone poem reflecting on the state of African American music in the 1970s. Debunking the myth of the record's rarity aside (scarcely available for decades until its 2002 reissue by Ubiquity), this album is a map of the African American musical canvas -- a symphony of melding influences as far reaching as Sun Ra's call and responses to the future, John Coltrane's tonal meditations to the holy spirit, and the electronic wizardry of Herbie Hancock's "Raindance" all nestled together in unison. The strength of this album lies in all these variables and Whitaker's own unique composition sensibilities bringing it all together in a way that's accessible to people unfamiliar with any of the aforementioned artists. Black Renaissance: Body, Mind & Spirit is a haunting echo of progression in a time where innovation was the norm, not the exception.

- @鸡桶(虾米，圣诞节快乐。)：Released: 1977 Genres: Jazz-Funk, jazz fushion artist: Black Renaissance "这张唱片当初录制完成以后发生了大火，录音室母带被烧了，美国自己都觉得没法发行，后来不知道怎么的，日本人搞到了母带，并且在日本发行了这张专辑，而且还没得到Harry Whitaker的同意，所以算bootleg。" -豆瓣 饺子✪ω✪ "ubiquity在再版之际就已经说的很清楚：这或许是历史上最早的一次爵士与rap的撞击。" 背后的故事
- @绿子( )：很棒的jazz
