James Blood Ulmer - Black Rock

Oh man, if you can't find something you like on this record, I can't help you. A couple of power trios, a couple of sing-songs, a couple of free jazz boogies, and great playing from the core of Blood Ulmer, Amin Ali on bass, and the great G. Calvin Weston on drums. A stone classic.

This one, and Free-Lancing were his best and most engaging JBU releases on a major label - a label that hasn't bothered to re-issue them in decades. Thank you, porter_esq!
