Reissue on vinyl for this classic jazz album originally recorded in September 1975 at A & R Recording Studios in New York and released in 1977 on Baystate Japan. Charles Greenlee worked extensively throughout his career with Archie Shepp who also participated in the sessions for Coltrane’s ‘A Love Supreme’ in late 1964. Late in the 1940s he converted to Islam, changing his name to Harneefan Majeed; he continued to use Charles Greenlee for professional purposes, though he is sometimes credited with his Muslim last name as a sort of nickname. This great spiritual jazz album includes the classic vocal ‘He’s Gone’ and the classic track ‘Steam.’
