Peter Johnson Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 Hey folks. Just picked this one up today--it's a 3-song record on Upfront records (UPF-194). It contains, on side A, Maulana (by HH/Mtume), 13:21; on side B, Dunia (by ?/Kuumba), 8:33 and Kamila (by HH/Mtume), 5:50. No personnel listed, other than the recording engineer (Tom Owen), assistant engineed (Larry Walker) and art director (David Lartaud). The jacket says "These Recordings Have Been Previously Released." Oh yeah? Where???!!! Sound/recording quality is fair. Does anyone know what this is? Kari??? Help! Thanks!

Claude Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 Herbie Hancock: Traces 1/ Maulana (Mtume) 13.20 2/ Dunia (Kuumba) 8.29 3/ Kamili (Mtume) 4.34 Produced by O'Be Productions Recorded December 11, 1969 at The Universe Kuuma Toudie Heath : drums; Mchezaji Buster Williams : bass; Msafari Don Cherry : trumpet; Mtume : conga; Mwandishi Herbie Hancock : piano; Tayari Jimmie Heath : tenor sax, soprano sax; Ed Blackwell : percussion. This is a bootleg which has three songs from Albert Heath's "Kawaida". This record is to be avoided because of poor sound quality. 1970 - Trip http://home.t-online.de/home/stamil/hhcomp.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Johnson Posted April 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 Thanks, Claude. After a listen, I started wondering if it was a bootleg of some kind. Off to look for the original. The music is great, and look at the lineup: Don Cherry - Trumpet Herbie Hancock - Piano Jimmy Heath - Sax (Soprano), Sax (Tenor) Ed Blackwell - Percussion Billy Bonner - Flute, Percussion Albert "Tootie" Heath - Drums James Mtume - Conga Buster Williams - Bass (from allmusic's listing of Kawaida) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luciano Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 I don't known if my previous post it is saved so I repeat my question: were Kawaida was recorded? New York City? New Jersey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 The recording location of that session was not documented. The Lord Discography says New York, but that's unconfirmed. There were five tracks recorded, btw. Baraka (Blessing) Maulana Kawaida Dunia Kamili Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On kamili Don Cherry doesn't plays (you must known if I'm a very Don' passonate) Grreetings Luciano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
