A Landmark Live Jazz Recording
Originally released in 1972 on the iconic Muse label, The Free Slave captures Roy Brooks at the peak of his powers — a drummer of deep conviction and fire, blending soul-rooted swing with the outer reaches of post-bop and avant-garde expression. This landmark live session brims with energy, featuring extended improvisations and tight interplay between some of the most vital players in modern jazz; Woody Shaw (trumpet), George Coleman (tenor sax), Hugh Lawson (piano), and Cecil McBee (bass).
