Angela Davis, radical black activist and philosopher, was arrested as a suspected conspirator in the abortive attempt to free George Jackson from a courtroom in Marin County, California, August 7, 1970. The guns used were registered in her name. Angela Davis was eventually acquitted of all charges, but was briefly on the FBI's most-wanted list as she fled from arrest.

Angela Davis is often associated with the Black Panthers and with the black power politics of the late 1960s and early 1970s. She joined the Communist Party when Martin Luther King was assassinated in 1968. She was active with SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee) before the Black Panthers. Angela Davis ran for U.S. Vice President on the Communist Party ticket in 1980.

Angela Davis has been an activist and writer promoting women's rights and racial justice while pursuing her career as a philosopher and teacher at the University of Santa Cruz and San Francisco University -- she achieved tenure at the University of California at Santa Cruz though former governer Ronald Reagan swore she would never teach again in the University of California system. She studied with political philosopher Herbert Marcuse. She has published on race, class, and gender.

I believe it sells mainly for two tracks; "Nobody Knows" by Dickie Wonder (diff.mix with female backing?) and "Baby Can't You See" by Tyrone Thomas (cover version of Little Tommy's Sound of Soul 45).

Bought mine still sealed for $80 to get these two tracks some weeks ago.

But can you speak of a real cover version, if it's the same artist, I'd say alternative take? I mean, Little Tommy is Tyrone Thomas, isn't he?

....obviously Makosi doesnt' charge for her services then, certainly in view of her "free" fling with Anthony in the jacuzzi!

PS - is the front cover the inspiration for Manu Dibango's "Soul Makossi"??

I'd sell my minty copy for £40 plus postage. I think that's a good price if anybody is interested?
