Black Pearls: The Poetry of Maya Angelou

writes:

Deceased composer and friend Ed Bland produced five jazz interludes on an album featuring poetry of Maya Angelou when she was less known. During that period Maya Angelou had a very militant perspective very different than her current image.

Thanks very much for this!   (It is very impressive how the news of her passing has hit everywhere.  She was quite a gal!)  Dominique-René de Lerma
