'Collaboration is stimulating, it's in my blood.' Thus speaks Brian Jackson and his philosophy
for making music and it's indeed collaboration that runs through this amazing album of
reimagined and revisited songs from his artistic past. Featuring artists such as Black Thought,
Rahsaan Patterson, Josh Milan, Moodymann, Omar, J. Ivy and others and being produced by
Masters At Work, Now More Than Ever takes the enduring classic tracks that Brian made
with Gil Scott-Heron and places them in the now over nineteen tracks and across a triple
vinyl LP, CD and digital release.
Songs such as Lady Day & John Coltrane, The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, Home Is
Where The Hatred Is, Winter In America, The Bottle and more soundtracked a generational
movement of Black Consciousness in the 70s and 80s. As Brian says, 'This album is one way
to connect to what we were about in the 70s; we were about change and this is part of the
lineage of resistance. These tracks mark a period of time when resistance was essential and
now a younger generation has picked them up.'
'As young men in their twenties we (Brian and Gil) just wrote about what we saw and were
feeling and people interpreted these songs in ways we never thought about but as Sly stone
said the song comes from me but it's for you.' This statement from Brian perfectly sums up
the collaborative nature of Now More Than Ever and the relevance of these songs in a
contemporary perspective can be perfectly summed up by the songs themselves. The
formidable stable of artists contributing to each track and the excellent production from
Louie Vega and Kenny 'Dope' Gonzalez make this album an event in itself. However, these
songs are there to be enjoyed as a canon or as individual masterpieces, whether on the
dancefloor or on a home system.
Available as a high res. digital release or a triple vinyl LP Now More Than Ever just has to be
