Oliver Nelson & Carl B. Strokes - The Mayor And The People
http://www.mediafire.com/?9udejt…In 1967 Carl B. Stokes was the first elected black mayor of an American city, Cleveland, Ohio. The first side of this album features a highly political press conference that touches on issues of the time, The Black Panthers, genocide and racism. On the second side is a beautiful seven-movement suite of poetry and spirituals featuring narration again from Carl B. Stoke. (El Reza)
