Max Roach vowed after this legendary album's release that he would never again play music that is not socially relevant and told Down Beat magazine, "we American jazz musicians of African descent have proved beyond all doubt that we're master musicians of our instruments. Now what we have to do is employ our skill to tell the dramatic story of our people and what we've been through".
"We Insist!" inspired Roach to broaden his scope as a composer and collaborate with choreographers, filmmakers, and playwrights. The LP includes extraordinary liner notes written by Nat Hentoff, giving a context and insight that adds to the experience of hearing these magnificent performances.
Remastered by Bernie Grundman and packaged in a tip-on jacket.
