Soul Of A Nation: Jazz Is The Teacher, Funk Is The Preacher Soul of a Nation

Afro-Centric Jazz, Street Funk and the Roots of Rap in the Black Power Era 1969-75 !

Soul Jazz Records' release 'Soul of A Nation: Jazz is the Teacher, Funk is the Preacher' is a powerful collection of radical jazz, street funk and proto-rap made in the era of Black Power (1969-75).

This is the second 'Soul of A Nation' album released by Soul Jazz Records and coincides with the exhibition 'Soul of a Nation - Art in the Age of Black Power' currently at the Brooklyn Museum in New York and which moves to Los Angeles at The Broad in spring 2019. The international exhibition was critically received when it was launched last year at the Tate Modern in London (as was the accompanying first album 'Soul of A Nation - Afro-Centric Visions in the Age of Black Power 1968-79').
