Roach, Max

Member Don't Git Weary

Arc Records reissues pioneering jazz drummer Max Roach's groundbreaking 1968 album 'Members Don't Git Weary'. The record sees the bebop originator lean into the social tumult of the late 1960's, embracing a broiling churn of modal and post-bop sounds that prefigures the afro-conscious spiritual jazz that would evolve further across the next decade. Roach is joined on this endeavour by a generation of young future heavyweights; Gary Bartz on sax, Charles Tolliver on trumpet, Stanley Cowell on piano, Jymie Merritt on electric bass, and vocalist Andy Bey on the title track. This reissue comes on 180 gram vinyl and features a full-colour 4-page insert with new liner notes.
