A mix of live recordings from 1968's Newport Jazz Festival and New York studio recordings made later that same month, Volunteered Slavery shows Rahsaan Roland Kirk being propelled by the energy of the late '60s toward a moment of ecstatic liberation. The title song epitomizes Kirks irrepressible personality. It starts as a funky vamp, while the band chants: Volunteered slavery has got me on the runVolunteered slavery has got me havin fun. As the band picks up steam, Kirk hollers over it: If you wanna know how it is to be free, you got to spend all day in bed with ME .
