I took this photo on a visit we had with the maestro Mtume in 2019. RIP to a wise and kind human who also happened to be an incredible musician and catalyst.
It’s the 22nd LP in the Now-Again Reserve subscription series. Denny Zeitlin’s wonderfully weird fusion of funk, electronic music, rock, jazz and avant-classical - “The Name Of This Terrain."
