The first solo album by jazz-funk legend Idris Muhammad, a New Orleans-born rhythm king who made the leap from the finest soulful jazz records of the '60s to the nastiest fusion funk of the '70s. Here we see him literally on the cusp between the two in 1970, with one foot in the get-down of "Express Yourself" and "Super Bad" and the other in his own heady excursions into modal rhythms and melodies, accompanied by virtuosos Kenny Barron, Ron Carter and Melvin Sparks, who came together for sessions led by legendary producer Rudy Van Gelder. This 180-gram reissue of Black Rhythm Revolution! was cut by Kevin Gray from the original analog tapes, pressed at RTI and packaged in a protective sleeve.
