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. Country Fried Chicken,
his fourth LP with his Lightmen band is his most accessible, a mixture of funk and
spiritual jazz.
Contains second disc with bonus tracks: alternate, synth-lead mixes of songs from
his first two LPs as well as rare and unreleased disco and boogie tracks. Extensive
booklet included.
