"A mythic figure in the Southern California arts scene, Kamau Daáood is a performance poet, educator and community arts activist who is widely acknowledged as a major driving force behind Los Angeles black cultural renaissance. Now with the release of his debut album, Leimert Park, Kamau unleashes his galvanizing spirit on the world. The resulting album reflects Leimert Parks eclectic musical landscape. Her, which Kamau dedicates to his wife, boasts jazzy Brazilian rhythms played by Billy Higgins on guitar, while the title track is a hip hop groove, invoking images from the vibrant neighborhood. The North African World Music transports the listener, while the free-jazz sounds of Liberator of Spirit and the hard-bop Tears draw us to the complex world of poetry and music. All in all, Leimert Park is the musical portrait of a communitys coming of age as seen through the eyes of one of its most devoted inhabitants." (Smmmit Records)
Album uit 1995 met Cedar Walton, Steve Nelson e.a.
