The Blackbyrds - Blackbyrds in details
The album artwork is a section of the Vincent Van Gogh painting Wheatfield with Crows.
Blackbyrds is the product of six full-time Howard University students taking the direction of department head and jazz great Donald Byrd into the Fantasy Studios along with the aid of production wizard Larry Mizell. The result is some of the finest groove-oriented jazz music ever recorded.
