It's Nation Time! (side two)







This week we discussed and listened to the influence of Black Nationalism and African Consciousness in Jazz Music from the 1960s. We also heard the second half of Amiri Baraka's recording It's Nation Time!

If you are interested in this you can listen to some Coltrane, Archie Shepp, Max Roach, Charles Mingus, Don Cherry, Randy Weston, and MANY OTHERS! And you can read:
