Item Description
Drummer, bandleader and activist Bubbha Thomas had toured America with R&B
revues, served as a session musician for Peacock and Back Beat Records, and
played straight ahead jazz with legends before the political and social upheaval of
the late 1960s led him to a path first charted by Coltrane. Free As You Wanna Be
predates the deep-set, maverick jazz issued by the likes of Tribe and Strata East and
is a harbinger of best of the 1970s jazz underground, a collective voice of resistance
to the musical and cultural status quo.
This is the first time that Free As You Wanna Be has seen reissue, and it is presented
in both the issued stereo and previously unissued mono mixes as a double CD.
Bubbha and his band’s story is told in great detail by Houston music and cultural
historian Lance Scott Walker (Houston Rap / Houston Rap Tapes) and Now-Again’s
Eothen Alapatt, in a booklet that contains unpublished photographs.
