Released in 1976 on the pioneering Strata-East Records label, Marchin' On! Feat. Stanley Cowell by The Heath Brothers is a masterful blend of tradition and innovation that captured the spirit of an evolving jazz scene. Combining the lyrical brilliance of Jimmy Heath on saxophone, the grounding presence of Percy Heath on bass, and the dynamic rhythm of Albert "Tootie" Heath on drums-alongside pianist and label co-founder Stanley Cowell-the album bridged the hard bop roots of the 1950s with the spiritual and socially conscious music of the 1970s.
