DESCRIPTION:Rickey Vincent comes to Revolution Books to present his new book PARTY 
 MUSIC: The Inside Story of the Black Panther's Band and How Black Power 
 Transformed Soul Music.\n[The Lumpen was] "a small, short-lived rhythm and 
 blues band that operated out of Oakland, California, in 1970. The group 
 performed for less than a year, but in that short window of time they 
 represented all that was revolutionary about black politics and black 
 culture in that era."...Party Music...explores the black cultural 
 revolution through an examination of the movement's music and 
 revolutionaries who danced and fought for their rights. The product of 
 exhaustive research, including exclusive interviews with party and band 
 members, Party Music is a political and cultural history offering an 
 insider's narrative of the Black Panther Party during its crucial 
 transformative phase. It also explores the motives of the great artists and 
 the songs they wrote and performed during that time. Vincent persuasively 
 argues that soul music lends itself perfectly to the cause of a fight for 
 freedom. Lumpen live shows were high energy, call-and-responsive interplays 
 between lead singer and chorus that invited audience interaction, and the 
 music of the streets blended with the political ideology of the Panthers.\n
