Soul Jazz Records is releasing a second Soul of A Nation compilation album this month. Entitled Jazz is the Teacher, Funk is the Preacher: Afro-Centric Jazz, Street Funk and the Roots of Rap in the Black Power Era 1969-75, it follows the runaway success of the Soul of a Nation – Art in the Age of Black Power exhibition and the accompanying compilation, which opened to acclaim at the Tate Modern last year. The exhibition is bound for Los Angeles in 2019, after its current stint at the Brooklyn Museum, New York comes to an end.
