Holy shit - this is a record they with a bunch of DC folks and ARCHIE SHEPP --- this is a really cool article from the Washington Post about the album, but also touches on Archie's connection to spoken word (Last Poets, Baraka, etc.):

Listening now - this is really really great. It feels full and genuine and like everyone is fully present and accounted for - Shepp is blowing, too, I haven't heard anything from him in a long time.

Plus, I had no idea Raw Poetic and Damu dropped something in April, "Moment of Change" -- or at least it looks new. I don't think I'm getting tired of Damu's sound any time soon -- and it keeps expanding and refining, it's such a joy to listen to...
