Both of his tremendous artistic strengths are to the fore here in a fully committed trio communion with longtime collaborator Gerald Cleaver (drums) \u0026amp; Chris Lightcap (bass).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive potent new Jones compositions, and a striking arrangement of \"No More My Lord\" (a prison song rec. By Alan Lomax at Parchman Farm). Legend of e'Boi is the 7th chapter (of 9 on completion) in Jones' expansive Man'ish Boy epic, begun with AUM Fidelity in 2009. As deeply personal a project as ever; the themes remain universal. Includes liner notes by acclaimed writer and poet Harmony Holiday, cover art photography of Jones himself, and additional artwork by Risha Rox.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypical of his work, Legend of e'Boi serves as a larger creative vehicle for artistic exchange. This project is about Black mental health and healing from personal and collective trauma through therapy, community \u0026amp; creative expression. In addition to the liner notes, CD\/digital editions include booklets w\/ contributions from seven writers \u0026amp; artwork which also address this theme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJones has received wide acclaim not only for his albums featuring music \u0026amp; images evocative of Black Futurism, but also for his commissioned work as a composer throughout the U.S. and Canada. Jones' fLuXkit Vancouver (i?t?s? suite but sacred) was ranked #3 in The Wire's Top 50 Albums of 2023 and chosen among NPR's 50 Best Albums of 2023.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited edition vinyl, jacket printed on reverse board. #includes insert w\/ liner notes \u0026amp; full-res download card w\/ 2 additional tracks.
