Phil Ranelin and Wendell Harrison: “Open Eye”

There’s a cool DIY backstory to the music’s label, Detroit-based Tribe Records. Check it out, a community-driven arts initiative since the 1970s. Have a listen to jazz fusion of Phil Ranelin and Wendell Harrison. Our highlighted track “Open Eye” comes off the LP JID016. That stands for “Jazz Is Dead,” a lovely spit in the eye of a critical shibboleth. If you’re on your 16th iteration, there’s life in these old bones yet.
