This amazing album was produced in the early 70’s to raise funds to help free the imprisoned Black Power icon Angela Davis. It contains some great Soul music with 3 tracks from Larry Saunders – The Prophet of Soul whose voice can likened to Curtis Mayfield or Donny Hathaway. ‘Free Angela’ , ‘This World’ and the Southern soul ‘Where did peace go’ are great social message songs. Tyrone Thomas ‘Baby can’t you see’ and Dickie Wonder ‘Nobody Knows’ are good up-tempo almost Northern Soul dancers, and Brother love’ I Can Be’ is a good beat ballad. Interesting 70’s soul album with a difference.
