Ahmed Abdul-Malik : Sounds Of Africa

New Jazz

Suffering

Bassist Abdul-Malik continues to experiment blending jazz with African and Eastern music on this 1962 LP. There's six tracks that touch on high life, bossa nova, blues, Middle Eastern folk and straight-up bop, all built around a backbone of heavy African percussion from Montego Joe, Chief Bey and Andrew Cyrille.
