New Africa is an album by American trombonist Grachan Moncur III recorded in 1969 and released on the BYG Actuel label in the same year. It features alto saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell (Art Ensemble of Chicago), pianist Dave Burrell, bassist Alan Silva and drummer Andrew Cyrille. Tenor saxophonist Archie Shepp performs on the final track. A reviewer of Dusty Groove wrote: "..The session features Moncur hitting an Archie Shepp-ish, spiritual vein in his playing – recorded in Paris with a group that includes Shepp, Roscoe Mitchell, Dave Burrell, and Andrew Cyrille. Side one's mostly the long suite 'New Africa', but it also includes the great composition 'Space Spy' – and side two features the tracks 'When' and 'Exploration'. The whole album's incredible – much more soulful than some of Moncur's 'new thing' recordings, and equally compelling!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkU54RExUk0&list=RDgkU54RExUk0&start_radio=1 #GrachanMoncurIll #NewThing #FreeJazz #BYGActuel #Jazz #Trombone #Music #AlanSilva #RoscoeMitchell #ArchieShepp

Love Cry is a 1968 album by jazz saxophonist Albert Ayler, released on Impulse! Records in 1968. An article in Jazzwise stated: "The swirling psychedelic typography that adorns the cover of this often overlooked album from Ayler's discography hints at the direction he was heading at the time. Along with John Coltrane's Om and Archie Shepp’s The Magic of Ju Ju, this was experimental acid jazz at its most potent." - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvyBNTWzbLg&list=PL511fSPfMr9IGJCwwOTvIOQIfwWosgzlG&index=1 #AlbertAyler #FreeJazz #Jazz #ImpulseRecords #Music #AlanSilva #MilfordGraves
