Harlem Bush Music – Uhuru is an album by saxophonist Gary Bartz NTU Troop which was recorded at Decca Sound Studios, New York, November 1970 & January 1971 and released on the Milestone label. All About Jazz stated "Harlem Bush Music remains extremely relevant. Though the album came at a time when Black Consciousness and Black Pride were coming to the fore of American culture, current times are such that its message of struggle, love and hope transcends racial categories. That is both a great testament to the power of this music, as well as to the dawning fact in this country that we're all in this together". (source: Wikipedia)

Gary Bartz (born September 26, 1940 in Baltimore, Maryland) is an American alto and soprano saxophonist and clarinetist. Bartz has played with Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, Max Roach, McCoy Tyner, and Jackie McLean. His group, the Ntu Troop, combined soul, funk, African music, hard bop, and avant-garde jazz.

In liner notes to his album released in 1995, The Red and Orange Poems, Bartz was described by jazz critic Stanley Crouch as "one of the very best who has ever picked up the instrument". He has recorded more than 40 solo albums and over 200 as a guest artist. He won a Grammy Award in 2005 for his playing on McCoy Tyner's album Illuminations. (source: Wikipedia)
