Destined to become a landmark recording, alongside such classic albums as Archie Shepp's "Attica's Blues" and Charles Mingus' "Fables Of Faubus", the WSQ's POLITICAL BLUES succeeds in being both a rallying cry against half-truths and injustices and a compelling musical statement. Recorded earlier this year in New York, the World Saxophone Quartet's POLITICAL BLUES is a statement that's both timely and timeless, and never less than utterly compelling. Guests include Craig Harris, James "Blood" Ulmer and Jeremy Pelt. Tracks: Political Blues / Hal's Blues (for Hal "Cornbread" Singer) / Mannish Boy / Let's Have Some Fun Blues / Amazin' Disgrace / Bluocracy (Parts 1, 2 & 3) / Blue Diamond / Harlem / Spy On Me Blues.
