Black Rhythm Revolution! is the first album by the jazz drummer Idris Muhammad.[1] [2] It was recorded in 1970 and released by Prestige Records[3] [4] the following year.[5]
Stewart Mason of AllMusic wrote: "Black Rhythm Revolution is not a bad album at all; in fact, most of the tracks are good to great, with the lengthy bookends 'By the Red Sea' and 'Wander' both featuring memorable grooves and tight, compact solos. It's just considerably less intense than the title might lead one to believe."[6] The DownBeat reviewer of the album's 2023 re-release wrote that it "features the rarely recognised funkier side of the jazz–fusion genre".
All compositions by Idris Muhammad except where noted.
