Kamal Abdul Alim assembled a great set of musicians The Brothers for his debut and seemingly only album ‘Dance’. Idris Muhammad under pins the rhythm with some great drumming. Bobby Watson on Sax and James Spaulding on Flute join Kamal in the horn section. The album was recorded in 1983 in New York but was only released in 1987. The album has been in demand and hard to find ever since the 90’s. It includes the Jazz dance classic ‘Brotherhood’ a brilliant flowing track with a driving rhythm, sure to get you boppin around.
It is a strong album throughout and includes the up tempo ‘Dance’ which has a heavy rhythm and ‘Al Nafs’ a lovely driving modal Jazz dancer, plus the beautiful Spiritual Jazz ‘Peace’ and ‘Prayer’ which sound better with each play—a really strong album throughout and a long lost rarity reissued and re-licensed exculsively by us!
The LP will be coming out on Record Store Day —a limited run of 1000 individually numbered copies—so for the time being enjoy our CD offering before you can get your hands on on of the records!
