**A reissue of Greg Tate's classic, out-of-print collection of essays, with a new introduction by Hanif Abdurraqib and a new foreword by Questlove. This program is read by Dion Graham and Mikel Mwalimu-Banks with introductions written and read by Questlove, Hanif Abdurraqib, and Henry Louis Gates Jr. It also features prerecorded and new music by Tate, Burnt Sugar the Arkestra Chamber, and Burnt Sugar the Arkestra Chamber conducted by Vernon Reid.** From one of the most original, creative, and provocative culture critics comes an eye-opening collection of essays and tales about American music and culture. Under the guise of writing about a single subject, Greg Tate’s essays in Flyboy in the Buttermilk branch out from his usual and explore social, pop cultural, political, and economic subjects. Taking on a wide diversity of topics—from the rise of hip-hop; the art of Jean-Michel Basquiat; the music of Miles Davis, James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Bad Brains, and many others; to the crisis of the Black intellectual and the irony of the GOP recruiting Black Americans— Tate writes in a brave and distinctive voice that is angry, joyous, anxious, and funny. In every piece of this collection, Tate offers informed insight into where America is going and why. Cover art © Carrie Mae Weems.
