Soundtrack to Questlove's directorial debut documentary. Like the film, most of the audio recordings that were recorded during the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival have not been heard for over 50 years, keeping this incredible event in America's history lost - until now. The 'Summer of Soul (...Or, When The Revolution Could Not Be Televised)' Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is a joyous musical celebration and the rediscovery of a nearly erased historical event that celebrated Black culture, pride and unity. For the album, Questlove carefully selected 17 live renditions of jazz, blues, R&B, Latin, and soul classics performed over the course of The Harlem Cultural Festival in 1969 as chronicled by the film.

Not as clear as today's recordings would be but it was live and over 50yrs ago so very happy

Fabulous release
I didn’t even know of the existence of this festival - it has been kept secret for so many years. This is a wonderful release and is an important record of a culturally important event. A great pressing, mastered well, and a worthy addition to any collection.
