The Mizell Brothers made Blue Note the hippest record label of the 1970s, even if it infuriated the jazz purists. Archie Shepp and the jazz avant-garde also had a knack for incensing the critics. We’ve got beautiful photos showing how real their movement was. And we finish up our talk with David Axelrod, who never got his own critical due.
