Life Goes On Records present a reissue of Johnny Rae's Afro-Jazz Septet's Herbie Mann's African Suite, originally released in 1959. Impressive session led jointly by Herbie Mann and John Rae. On side A, the group incessantly shifts from soft vibes-and-flute jazz to percussion-heavy Afro-Cuban rhythms to classic Blue Note hard bop. Side B is the "African Suite", a percussive trip across the Sahara. Personnel: Herbie Mann (flute, bass clarinet); Johnny Rae (vibes); Bob Corwin (piano); Jack Six (bass); Philly Joe Jones (drums); Carlos Patato Valdés, Victor Pantoja (conga); José Mangual (bongo). Recorded in New York City, 1959.
