Recorded in 1968, "Members, Don't Git Weary" is Max Roach's spiritual jazz masterpiece. Roach's signature driving drums surge against the backdrop of the civil rights movement. Gary Bartz's sharp alto and Charles Toliver's trumpet intertwine vividly. Andy Bay's vocals resonate deeply on the title track, emanating a soul-stirring power. This seminal work embodies the transition from hard bop to avant-garde jazz, making it a timeless testament to both social commentary and musical innovation.
