LangstonHughes & Margaret Danner —
Writers Of The Revolution ... LP Black Forum/Motown, 1970. New Copy (reissue)...
Out Of Stock
One of the most laidback albums ever recorded by Motown – a conversation between authors LangstonHughes and Margaret Danner – presented in a nicely unadorned style for Motown's Black Forum label! There's no music on the record at all, but both writers read some of their work – and while Danner is great, Hughes is really amazing – with that incredible voice that made some of his jazz-meets-poetry albums so wonderful from previous years!

A really fantastic record – a righteous blend of jazz and spoken word, served up at a level that rivals some of the famous collaborations between LangstonHughes and Charles Mingus! The tunes have a similar introspective quality to that work, but are delivered with a style that's maybe more 70s spiritual jazz overall – instrumentation by a quartet that features Jim Work on acoustic and electric piano, next to bass, drums, percussion, and some very cool effects! Words were all penned and spoken by Jim Marks – who also wrote the music, even though he doesn't play any of the instruments – on beautiful tracks that include "Jazz Is Ourselves", "On Black", "Eulogy For Dewey", "I Out To Watch That Ego", and "It's Time To Become".
