全新精选集，收录20世纪60至80年代精美罕见的爵士唱片封面设计。

十五年前，吉尔斯·彼得森和斯图尔特·贝克（灵魂爵士唱片公司）出版了第一部《自由、节奏与声音》：这部独特的合集展现了20世纪60至70年代独立发行的爵士唱片封面设计，这些设计出自太阳·拉、约翰·科尔特兰、法老·桑德斯、芝加哥艺术乐团等激进爵士音乐家之手。他们在这一时期创作的唱片封面设计，往往是他们自己设计的，反映了他们激进的理念、精神追求以及对音乐和个人自由的独特探索。

《自由、节奏与声音：第二章》是这部全新合集的第二部，收录了数百张同样来自20世纪60至80年代的精美罕见爵士唱片封面设计。这些设计记录了非裔美国艺术家们在爵士乐领域不断演进的历程，他们踏上新的道路，探索启迪的旅程，走向欧洲、日本、非洲等地。在那里，热情的听众给予了他们全新的尊重，当地的制作人和唱片公司也渴望录制他们开创性的、激进的新音乐。

《自由、节奏与声音：第二章》通过精美的唱片封面设计，以视觉化的方式记录了这一时期。除了这一时期的激进爵士乐，本书还收录了非裔美国诗人的唱片封面艺术、民权运动演讲录音（马丁·路德·金、马尔科姆·X）、早期先驱（尤瑟夫·拉蒂夫、马克斯·罗奇、奥内特·科尔曼等）等内容，所有这些都对20世纪60年代以来激进爵士乐的发展产生了影响。

A new collection of beautiful and rare jazz record designs from the 1960s–1980s.

Just over fifteen years ago, Gilles Peterson and Stuart Baker (Soul Jazz Records) published the first Freedom, Rhythm and Sound: a unique collection showcasing the stunning graphic works of independently published jazz record cover designs in the 1960s and 1970s from radical jazz musicians such as Sun Ra, John Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders, The Art Ensemble of Chicago and others. The artwork of their often self-produced record cover designs during this era reflected their radical agenda, spiritual awareness and singular search for musical and personal freedoms.

Freedom, Rhythm and Sound: CHAPTER TWO is a new second collection featuring hundreds more beautiful and rare jazz record cover designs from the 1960s-1980s. These designs help document the continued developments in jazz as African-American artists set out on new pathways and journeys to enlightenment, heading out into Europe, Japan, Africa and beyond where eager audiences gave them a new-found respect and where local producers and record labels were keen to record their ground-breaking and radical new music.

Through stunning record cover designs, Freedom, Rhythm and Sound: CHAPTER TWO acts as a visual documentation of this period. As well as the radical jazz music of this time, the book also includes sections on the record cover art of African-American poets, Civil Rights Speech recordings (Martin Luther King, Malcolm X), early pioneers (Yusef Lateef, Max Roach, Ornette Coleman and others) all of which helped influence and shape the world of radical jazz from the 1960s onwards.
