Alto saxophonist Gary Bartz attended the Juilliard Conservatory of Music and became a member of Charles Mingus' Jazz Workshop from 1962-1964 where he worked with Eric Dolphy and encountered McCoy Tyner for the first time. He also began gigging as a sideman in the mid-'60s with Abbey Lincoln and Max Roach, and later as a member of Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers. His recording debut was on Blakey's Soul Finger album. Tyner formed his famed Expansions band in 1968 with Bartz on alto. In addition, Bartz also formed his own bands at this time and recorded a trio of albums for Milestone, and continued to tour with Max Roach's band. In 1970, Miles Davis hired Bartz and featured him as a soloist on the Live-Evil recording. Bartz formed the NTU Troop that year as well, an ensemble that fused soul and funk, African folk music, hard bop, and vanguard jazz into a vibrant whole. Among the group's four recordings from 1970-1973, Harlem Bush Music: Taifa and Juju Street Songs have proved influential with soul jazzers, and in hip-hop and DJ circles as well. From 1973-1975 Bartz was on a roll, issuing I've Known Rivers and Other Bodies, Music Is My Sanctuary, Home, and Another Earth, all stellar outings. He meandered for most of the 1980s, coming back in 1988 with Reflections on Monk. Since that time, Bartz has continued making records of quiet intensity and lyrical power -- notably Red & Orange Poems in 1995 -- and has with become one of the finest if under-noticed alto players of his generation. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide

Uh from the Indians who welcomed the pilgrims And to the buffalos who once ruled the plains Like the vultures circling beneath the dark clouds looking for the rain Looking for the rain Just like the cities stagger on the coastline In a nation that just can’t stand much more Like the forest buried beneath the highway, never had a chance to grow Never had a chance to grow And now it’s winter, winter in America Yes now that all of the killers have been killed, sent away, Yeah But the people know, the people know, it’s winter Winter in America And ain’t nobody fighting cause Nobody knows what to say Save your soul, lord knows from Winter in America The constitution, a noble piece of paper With free society, a struggle but they died in vain And now democracy is a ragtime on the corner Hoping for some rain It looks like he’s hoping, hoping for some rain And I see the robins perched in baron treetops Watching lasting racists marching across the floor Just like the peace sign that vanished in our dreams Never had a chance to grow Never had a chance to grow And now it’s winter Winter in America Yes now that all of the killers have been killed, or betrayed, Yeah But the people know, the people know, it’s winter Lord knows it’s winter in America And ain’t nobody fighting cause nobody knows what to say Save your soul From a winter in America Stick And now it’s winter Winter in America And now that all of the killers done been killed, sent away The people know, the people know, it’s winter Winter in America And ain’t nobody fighting cause nobody knows what to say And ain’t nobody fighting cause nobody knows nobody knows And ain’t nobody fighting cause nobody knows what to say
