Julius Hemphill

One of the essential albums of 70's creative jazz. The music of the late great saxophonist and composer Julius Hemphill presents a strong combination of Blues roots, Free energy and Bop complexity. Recording in New York in 1977, "Raw Materials and Residuals" explodes like a face off between Hemphill's unique reeds, Abdul Wadud's deep pizzicato and Don Moye's frantic drive. - (One of the great titles in modern Jazz chronology) All Music Guide
