• We Free Kings is one of the most celebrated albums by the multi-instrumentalist Roland Kirk, released in 1961. On this record, Kirk blends hard bop, soul jazz, and blues with his unmistakable flair for innovation. Known for playing multiple wind instruments simultaneously, he delivers a bold, swinging session thats both accessible and adventurous. The title track, a fiery reinterpretation of We Three Kings, sets the tone for an album full of surprise, wit, and groove. Backed by an outstanding quartet, Kirks creativity and joy for pushing musical boundaries shine throughout.
