- ronny boykins: the will come, is now
(2009, cd, usa, esp-disk)
He also worked with Marion Brown, Bill Barron, Rahsaan Roland Kirk and Steve Lacy to name a few. He even played mainstream music with Mary Lou Williams, and the blues with Muddy Waters.
Boykins went on to lead the Free Jazz Society and then went into the Melodic Art-Tet.
When Bernard Stollman asked him to record for ESP in 1964, Boykins said that he was not ready. Eleven years later, in 1975, he was.
A little while ago, ESP re-released this 1975 LP as a CD.
You might get some samples of what the original album sounded like over here:
