The Rahsaanaissance continues. Recorded March 3, 1972 at the Funkhaus in Hamburg, Germany and originally broadcast on German radio and television, the recordings on Rahsaan Roland Kirk – Brotherman In The Fatherland have surfaced from time to time over the years on the jazz underground--swapped among tape-traders and rare jazz collectors. With the Hyena release, however, these pristine, high fidelity recordings of the highly-regarded and much-lauded "Hamburg '72 radio broadcasts" are officially available for the first time ever. On Brotherman In The Fatherland, Rahsaan Roland Kirk is joined by his band of the period featuring Ron Burton on piano, Henry Pete Pearson "Mettathias" on bass, Richie Goldberg on drums and Joe "Habao" Texidor on percussion. The date serves as an exceptional example of Kirk's brilliance on tenor saxophone. His bold, muscular tone and visionary command of the instrument are highlights throughout the concert, including set openers, "Like Sonny" and "Make It With You," his often played improvisational vehicle "Pedal Up" and a tour de force rendition of John Coltrane's "Blue Trane." Another standout is the six minute-plus medley of the Kirk compositions "Seasons" and "Serenade To A Cuckoo," for which he switches to flute and showcases yet another side of his unending musical oeuvre.
