Del Jones' Positive Vibes - Court Is Closed

NOW AGAIN RECORDS - NA5218LP

Court is Closed, equal parts psychedelic rock and deep funk, had a limited release of 500 copies and was rarely heard before Jones overdubbed horns on the album, remixed and augmented it with additional music, and issued it as the better-known Positive Vibes. Here we present both versions of the album on the 23rd release in the deluxe Now-Again Reserve Edition series. Jones' story, and that of his family, is like his music: a loud, vital voice long silenced. Under- standing it now is not just a visceral musical experience, but an essential dissection of racism and classism in America.
