McCoy Tyner had been increasingly looking to Africa for inspiration on his Blue Note records of the late-60s. With 1970’s "Asante" he brought those influences to the fore with the swirling percussive rhythmic bed of Billy Hart and Mtume along with Buster Williams, Ted Dunbar, Andrew White, and the vocals of Songai.
BLUE NOTE TONE POET EDITION: Stereo, produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analogue master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a single sleeve with deluxe tip-on jacket.
