 Jack McDuff | Brotherly Love
Brotherly Love would have been one of those feel-good Jack McDuff albums that reunites some of his early collaborators and some of the musicians he helped train (dozens of them!)...were it not his last album.

Brotherly Love is yet more proof that he understood the power of music, as he worked to channel that power to his audiences.
