double album released by BGP records. “If You’re Not Part Of The Solution” draws upon the melting pot of ideas that can be picked up in veteran Hammond player Johnny Smith’s call for ‘Black Feelings’, or the cosmic wanderings of the obscure Philadelphia group Catalyst. Funk in all its forms can be found; be it the relentless bass rhythm of the title track, or the Miles Davis-influenced shifting groove of Johnny Lytle’s ‘Tawhid’. It was an exciting period and the music is caught up in that, but above all there is reverence for the greats such as Miles Davis and John Coltrane who are the pillars of a newly confident African American culture. Featuring Joe Henderson Quintet, Johnny Hammond Smith, Catalyst, Clifford Jordan Quartet, Harold Vick, Eddie Jefferson, Gary Bartz NTU Troop, Azar Lawrence & Funk, Inc.
