Tapscott is the key figure in the LA political & underground jazz scene of the late 20th century with his stridently independent & radical music. This superb rare, deep & spiritual jazz opus album has been unavailable on vinyl for over 40 years. The music is part Sun Ra Arkestra, part John Coltrane, part Art Ensemble of Chicago & explores the multi-faceted deep & spiritual jazz of Tapscott. The Arkestra was set up as a musicians collective in the early 60s, part of a radical jazz scene on the west coast that included Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman & Eric Dolphy. After his debut in 1969 followed 2 albums with Elaine Brown, the only woman to lead the Black Panther party; Tapscott was a community organiser closely aligned to it's LA chapter.
