This is a pivotal work in the discography of Roach and African-American music in general, its importance growing in relevance and timely, postured, real emotional output. We Insist subtitled Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite is a jazz album released on Candid Records in 1960. It contains a suite which composer and drummer Max Roach and lyricist Oscar Brown had begun to develop in 1959 with a view to its performance in 1963 on the centennial of the Emancipation Proclamation. The cover references the sit-in movement of the Civil Rights Movement. The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album one of its rare crown accolades, in addition to featuring it as part of its Core.

Max Roach was one of the most widely respected drummers in jazz. He died recently at the age of 83. My hunch and hope is that the record he was most proud of in his long career was this one. Roach was active in the civil rights movement in the US throughout his life and the Freedom Now Suite is a musical history lesson. Just for its subject matter everyone in the world should be forced to listen to this album at least once. There is some fine playing, like Booker Littles trumpet solo on Freedom Day. But its not an easy listen, the mood is unsurprisingly sombre throughout, and it suffers from very basic recording and production. Complete your Max Roach collection. We Insist Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite, co-authored by Max Roach and Oscar Brown, Jr. was a pivotal work in the early-'60s African-American protest movement, and continues to be relevant in its message and tenacity. It represents a lesson in living as to how the hundreds of years prior were an unnecessary example of how oppression kept slaves and immigrants in general in their place. Vocalist Abbey Lincoln expresses this oppression as effectively as anyone could with her thespian-based wordless vocals, and lyrics written by Brown that tell the grim story of the struggle read more. Max Roachs ambitious We Insist appeared in 1960, just as the civil rights movement was entering its crucial phase. The albums mixture of modern jazz, African rhythms and sparse but powerful lyrics contributed to Oscar Brown Jr. still has the ability to unsettle and inspire. Its compositions take a critical view of American history from the slavery era onwards, broadening into a larger cry for justice on the African continent. Singer Abbey Lincolns performances are remarkable for their emotional resonance and visceral impact, taking her leagues beyond the nightclub stylings of her earlier
