Horace Tapscott Primer 2
More from the Primer in the current issue of Wire -

18:57 B1. Nakatini Suite
28:05 B2. Peyote Song No. III
Recorded April 8, 1978 Los Angeles, California.
The second LP by Horace Tapscott's Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra (a 16-piece trumpet-less big band) has four lengthy selections; three originals by bandmembers plus Cal Massey's "Nakatini Suite". Best-known among the sidemen are veteran Red Callender (doubling on tuba and bass) and the powerful altoist Michael Session. Many of the other players (including the pianist-leader) have some space to stretch out and the ensembles (with their unusual voicings and free spots) are quite colorful.

Alto Saxophone – Michael Session
Bass – David Bryant, Kamonta Lawrence Polk
Cello, Bass – Louis Spears
Conductor, Piano – Horace Tapscott
