Drummer, composer, and bandleader Ted Sirota is a passionate young man
who lives his political, social, and cultural convictions through his
music with his Rebel Souls musical outfit. On his first outing for the
Delmark label, Sirota and his longtime mate, guitarist Jeff Parker, who
emigrated from the Berklee College of Music to Chicago with him, turns
in one of the most inspiring, integrational "jazz" performances since
Charlie Haden's first Liberation Music Orchestra album. There are 11
tunes on the set, five of which were composed by Sirota, and the rest
by bandmembers Parker, saxophonist Geof Bradfield, trombonist Jeb
Bishop, and bassist Clark Sommers. The sheer musical and emotional
range of this band is startling. From the drummed up and dubbed out
African-and-reggae-groove-meets-post-bop of Sirota's "Saro-Wira," to
his driven, electric, electronic, and stomping blues work "Chairman
Fred (I Wish Fred Hampton Was Here)," Sirota's own compositions are
rooted in the music and pulse of the current culture.
