A brand new and original series, highlighting a legendary Jazz record producer - ORRIN KEEPNEWS Drawing on his recordings under the Fantasy/Concord Music Group label: 24-BIT remastering from the original master tapes. Original cover art and liner notes. Extensive & insightful NEW liner notes by Orrin Keepnews. BONUS TRACKS ADDED [alternative takes and/or original unissed numbers] when available. Mid price. The only Milestone release in the Keepnews Collection is Henderson's brilliant electric and acoustic outing with an incredible band of pianist Herbie Hancock (also on keys), bassist Ron Carter (also on electric bass) and drummer Jack DeJohnette. This marks the first time Power to the People has been issued on CD in its own right, other than having its tunes be included in a boxed set. While the tenor saxophonist never got his true recognition until his latter-day career, he recorded extensively for Milestone, including this third outing that Keepnews says offers some of the most wonderfully, effectively professional music I have ever been involved with. The disc features the debut recording of the tenor saxophonist's classic composition, Black Narcissus.
