Description
‘Freedom, Rhythm and Sound’ is a new second collection featuring hundreds more beautiful and rare jazz record cover designs from the 1960s-1980s. These designs help document the continued developments in jazz as African-American artists set out on new pathways and journeys to enlightenment, heading out into Europe, Japan, Africa and beyond where eager audiences gave them a new-found respect and where local producers and record labels were keen to record their ground-breaking and radical new music. Back at home in the USA, African-American jazz artists in the mid-1970s now also found themselves freer to explore their creative artistry, having successfully renegotiated their relationship with the USA record industry through the pioneering work of those earlier artists.
