MOTIVATION AND ANALYSIS

The music in this album was created to mirror the street rallies and meetings that exist today in the ghetto areas of the large cities in the USA, such as the Fillmore district in San Francisco, the South Side in Chicago, and Harlem in New York, to mention a few.

At these street rallies, or meetings, the people of all walks of life have an opportunity to express themselves vocally, on their impressions of the state of the nation as related to themselves, culturally, socially, economically and politically.

"SPEAK BOTHER SPEAK" is based on a blues progression with a suspended interlude to introduce each soloist (speaker). The metre and tempo changes serve as subject material for teh solist (speaker).

"A VARIATION" - Each soloist "speaks" on the same theme. The solos are based on a minor tonality and the soloist does not have to adhere to any set number of bars. I should also add that the above motivation and analysis was exactly teh musical blueprint from which Clifford JORDAN, Mal WALDRON and Eddie KHAN had to work and that without their creative and imaginative know how an extended work such as this would have been most difficult.

i thank them for their cooperation and hope you enjoy and appreciate our efforts - MAX ROACH

'Nuff said.
