Self Determination Music

Recorded in Los Angeles, 1970. There are no formal instrumental credits on the gatefold sleeve (nor any information about recording date/venue). However, the liner notes by Robert Levin suggests that this is the John Carter & Bobby Bradford Quartet, with Carter on reeds, Bradford on trumpet, Tom Williamson on bass and Buzz Freeman on drums (see their other Flying Dutchman release, Flight For Four). Additionally, the second bassist is Henry Franklin in accordance with Tom Lord's Jazz discography. This information is from Bobby Bradford, and confirmed by Martin Davidson.
