Jonnie'S Notes:
Arabic for The Women, underscores the numerous references to women in the 4th chapter of the Quran. Black Unity Trio - Al Fatihah [the opening verse of the Qur'an] quite possibly was the first-ever independently-released free jazz record. Originating in Oberlin, Ohio as the Black Unity Quartet, and ultimately becoming the Trio (Abdul Wadud, Yusuf Mumin, and Hasan Al Hut), the group recorded Al Fatihah December 24, 1968. The album was released May 1969 in an edition of 500 copies, and reissued for the first time on vinyl in 2020
