Originally recorded live at Paris’s Maison de la Radio in December 1972, For Peace And Liberty: In Paris, Dec 1972 captures the Black Artists Group at their creative peak, channeling the spirit of avant-garde jazz and the transformative energy of the era. This legendary session delivers a riveting, musically acrobatic performance—melding taut rhythms with bold improvisation—offering a vivid snapshot of an influential, yet under-documented, collective pushing boundaries on the global stage.
This special release comes remastered from the original tapes and features a 20-page booklet with insights from core members Oliver Lake, Joseph Bowie, Baikida Carroll, and tributes from the families of Bobo Shaw and Floyd LeFlore. Enhanced by extensive liner notes from BAG scholar Benjamin Looker and rare photos by renowned French photographer Philippe Gras, it provides an immersive window into the group’s artistry and legacy for jazz enthusiasts and new listeners alike.
