   hmm, the ‘african suite’ typeface looks the same as on the the ‘lenny bruce – american’ cover.

   Like Allan, I’ve been waiting for this wonderful music to be reissued on CD. I wonder how the record companies pick and choose what they will and will not reissue. This is a great album, set the pace for afro and cuban jazz; perhaps ahead of its time. I think Capital now owns the UA Jazz catalog and I’ve tried contacting them about a possible reissue, but neve get a reply.
