Khan Jamal

I noticed that Khan Jamal became a member here about six weeks ago, and I've been listening to his album Peace Warrior over the last two days. His playing is just exceptional and soulful, and he is a recent discovery for me. I had heard of him as a result of a Downbeat interview several decades ago, but really never checked him out until he played on Matthew Shipp's album Equilibrium from a couple of years ago. It is my understanding that Mr. Jamal became ill after that album's release but appears to be recovering and playing again.
