Hannibal - African Portraits (Teldec)
with Daniel Barenboim, Chicago SO, the Morgan State University Choir, Kennedy-King College Community Chorus, et al

I'm just giving this a first listen. The former "Hannibal" Marvin Peterson [now Hannibal Lokumbe] takes on some of the same themes that John Carter explored in his superb Roots and Folklore series. However, unlike Carter's, this music is cast using a full symphony orchestra as well as vocal soloists and choruses.

Bill Mathieu, palate in the service understanding the gig. You go Bill Mathieu, you go.

Speaking of palate, this is, visually, worthy of Hitchcock (musically too, if you feel so inclined...). I hope this clip lives forever and is never found in better form, becuase it is perfect just like this. Whoever was in the control booth for this one mixing the viual (the director, right?) was a genius.
