Barely a few days after the passing of Wayne Shorter... news seems to be coming through of Carlos Garnett RIP 
Light on news stories at present, but I have confidence that if anyone knows, Gilles Peterson will...
Member of Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers and also worked with Miles Davis and Pharaoh Sanders, but known for his spiritual jazz albums of the mid 70s. One of those, I've written about before, is particularly special to me - Black Love from 1974, an absolute monster of an LP featuring Norman Connors and Dee Dee Bridgewater.
Two tracks particularly on that album take me to another place...
Mother of the Future
Banks of the Nile
Not to forget the many jazz-funk flavours on Journey to Enlightenment, The New Love, Cosmos Nucleus, Let this Melody Ring On, but the first time I discovered Black Love evokes a special memory.
Many years ago in the early days of Youtube, I saw a post under the video for Mother of the Future, it read.. "My introduction to the ways of an anti-fascist life". That comment has always stayed with me.
Thanks for the music and emotions Carlos x
