• DIGIPACK EDITION

Long-treasured among jazz fans and record collectors, Hannibal Marvin Peterson’s unreleased album The Tribe is a sacred collection of blistering jazz assaults and deep reflective spirituals from Hannibal’s ten-piece group. The unreleased album is something of a holy grail among collectors, with only a handful of test presses ever made. Now 36 years later, it is ready to be officially released for the first time, and fans of Black Jazz and Strata East won’t have to shell out the $2000+ asking price for what is considered by many to be a lost treasure and one of Hannibal’s best works.
