NOTES

The history of Afro Americans is indelibly linked in the mysteries and past of Africa itself - the
dark continent is the spiritual homeland and the root of all culture. It was (and remains) the index of possibilities -
a magical birthright from which a nation has been held in forced exile, and in which exiled Afro Americans could invest
their vision of what might have been.
In this mythology the drum holds a special place as the one true communicator
left from the motherland - it embodies not only the means of communication, but also the very spirit of resistance
itself. It was not without reason that the slavers hid the drums from their captives, and that the plantation owners
banned the drum as actively as they banned the ancient religions and spirits. Neither is it a coincidence that most
musical historians place the birth of jazz in Kongo Square, New Orleans - the very place where the slavemasters allowed
the slaves to meet on a weekly basis in their free time. What was their reaction? To get the drums out.
African
Americans may have lost the ability to hear the drums talk, but rhythm remains the root of their musical culture, and to
this day it provides a link back to the non vocal traditions of revolt. Small wonder then that the language of
resistance lies with the drummers - the great soloists may be the gunfighters of jazz (look no further than Johnny
Griffin or Roy Eldridge - pirates on the high seas of jazz technique - or at Sonny Rollins packing stetson and sixgun on
"Way Out West"), but the drummers dominate through their control of the twisting and swirling canvass on which
the masterpiece is worked out. It is an undeniable fact that all the great developments of jazz have been accompanied or
initiated by developments in the rhythm section permitting more complex rhythmic techniques.
As such it is natural
that drummers (and to some extent bassists - Mingus for example) should have been the first to catch the mood of
advancing interest in the roots of their music. Art Blakey studied the drums in Africa (as indeed did Randy Weston,
Yusef Lateef, and Pharoah Sanders in fairness), attempting to learn their messages and to show "how wide a range of
emotions it is possible to draw from the drums". Max Roach linked these messages of ethnic pride to the politics of
the black muslims, of WE Du Bois and Marcus Garvey and came up with his "Freedom Suite", at the same time
inspiring other musicians to make their statements on the homeland.
Looking back from the problems that Africa
faces in the 90s it is hard to conceive the possibilities that a newly independent and home ruled Africa presented, and
the model it gave Afro Americans to strive for. As we come full circle into the 90s and interest in Afro American
history is again revived, here is a flavour of the dark continent in musical form.



Quote:REVIEW

It is arguable that all jazz is rooted in the African tradition; this Blue Note
compilation pays homage to the stronger aspects of African-influenced music in American history. 
Many of these
songs are direct explorations of African rhythms and styles, as well as tributes to African culture. Some of the best
material from the Blue Note archives is featured here, including songs from McCoy Tyner, Diane Reeves, Art Blakey, and
Lee Morgan. (AMG)
