Chicago-based composer, clarinetist, and spiritual jazz visionary Angel Bat Dawid made an unforgettable debut with The Oracle, a record that introduced her singular voice to the world. Described as "a masterpiece, rich with dense improvisation and Afrocentric themes," the album serves as a vibrant free-jazz document of Black life, drawing on spirituality, community, and a deeply felt sense of artistic purpose.
This IA11 Edition brings a fresh dimension to the original release, featuring an 8-page 11x11" insert booklet filled with unpublished photos and new liner notes by collaborator Asher Gamedze, who also appears on the track "Capetown." For fans of spiritual and avant-garde jazz, this deluxe pressing offers a meaningful way to experience one of the most celebrated debut albums in recent jazz history.
