BLACK ARTIST GROUP Vinilo y CD

Review: For Peace and Liberty captures a remarkable and long-lost performance by the Black Artist Group (BAG), finally seeing the light of day after being hidden for over 50 years. Recorded live in Paris in December 1972, this album caotures BAG's explosive fusion of free improvisation, spiritual jazz, and funk grooves. The group, freshly arrived from St. Louis, deliver an electrifying 35-minute set at Maison de l'ORTF, showing their unmatched creativity and energy. Wewantsounds has partnered with BAG and INA to bring this rare recording to the world, marking the group's first official release since their iconic In Paris, Aries 1973, which for many years was their only album. Remastered from the original tapes, the sound quality is exceptional, allowing listeners to fully appreciate the intensity and passion of BAG's performance. Featuring six parts of the titular track, For Peace and Liberty is more than just a rediscovered gemiit's a vital piece of jazz history.
