The centerpiece of this special collection is a 60-page hardcover book featuring revealing essays by vocalist and visual artist Cécile McLorin Salvant, author and historian Robin D. G. Kelley, and drummer and producer Terri Lyne Carrington, along with Garner’s original artwork, rare photographs, and unique glimpses into the Erroll Garner Archive. As Dr. Kelley writes in his essay, “Together, the various elements in Liberation In Swing mark the zenith of Garner’s career and provide more than ample proof of his preeminent place in music history. The Octave Records story is one that remains relevant today. It is the real story of Erroll Garner and Martha Glaser, and their quest for artistic freedom, a story of dreams and disappointments, triumphs and tribulations, invention and imagination.”
