An intense and hard-hitting jazz music and poetry collection of imaginations at play in the third in a series of recordings from saxophonist-composer Benjamin Boone. Contributors include Tyehimba Jess, Juan Felipe Herrera featured on the title track, Patricia Smith, T.R. Hummer, Edward Hirsch, Donald Brown II, Kenny Werner, Ben Monder and Ari Hoenig. Stirring, socially and politically conscious, often beautiful, work that will make you think and that never shirks from challenging and confronting societal wrongs in a way that transcends the polemics of the newspaper opinion writers and the power grab of politicians. If like me you agree with Shelley that ''poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world'' then you will certainly appreciate the powerful impact delivered and achieved by all. Boone's vision surpasses all expectations. SG
