Roots: The Saga of an American Family is a 1976 novel written by Alex Haley. It tells the story of Kunta Kinte, an 18th-century African, captured as an adolescent, sold into slavery in Africa, transported to North America following his life and the lives of his descendants in the United States down to Haley. The release of the novel, combined with its hugely popular television adaptation, Roots 1977, led to a cultural sensation in the United States, and it is considered to be one of the most. Quincy Jones has been threatening to write a long tone poem sketching the history of black music for decades now, and he has yet to do it. This project, rushed out in the wake of the 1977 TV mini-series Roots, is about as close as he has come. Roots Mural Theme Bridge Plantation Life.

I always used to love the music, the theme song from Roots has always been one of my favorite songs. This is not from the actual motion picture, Quincy Jones arranged this music, but it sounds just like the arrangements that came out of the movie
