Funky jazz on the spiritual tip from the Black Jazz label’s keyboard great, featuring Doug’s wife Jean - predating her shift to Philly disco.

Timeless classic.. Perhaps the hardest to find of the Doug Carn LP’s on Black Jazz – and a real killer all the way through! The album’s a mother lode of righteous jazzy soul – power-driven by Doug on organ, and peppered wonderfully with vocals by then-wife Jean Carn – singing in a totally different mode than on her later Philly Soul recordings. Maximo Tutorial. The rest of the group includes some great work from Olu Dara on trumpet and Rene McLean on alto and the album includes Doug’s great reading of “Naima”, plus the cuts “Power & Glory”, “Feel Free”, “Jihad”, “Fatherhood”, and “God is One”.. If you have landed here, then the Universe has pulled you and you have followed: There was a time when everything seemed just about to happen, needing just a spark to bring about a new world; this recording was of that time–it still strikes sparks.
