Baltimore jazz poet Wanda Robinson released Black Ivory(named for her backing band) in 1971 on the Perceptionlabel. The album paints a portrait of the artist as a(righteously) angry young woman, riffing on social mores,political injustices, and sexual politics. Produced by jazzcomposer and pianist Anthony Davis, the 11 cuts that makeup Black Ivory are rooted by a chamber jazz group of piano,flute and saxes, bass, and drums.
