ReadersMagnet featured Rickey Vincent’s “Party Music: The Inside Story of the Black Panthers’ Band and How Black Power Transformed Soul Music,” a highly-informative historical book, at their exhibit booth for the New York Library Association 2022 Annual Conference. NYLA happened on November 3 - 4, 2022, at Saratoga Springs City Center at 522 Broadway, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.

In his work, Rickey Vincent traces the odyssey to which the black power movement impacted black America’s streets. His book not only features the Lumpen, a Black Panthers funk band, but also tackles the hopes, challenges, triumphs, and setbacks of a generation desperate to be heard during one of America’s most turbulent eras. “Party Music” dissects the innermost workings of the black power movement.

The impact of black music on popular culture is enormous. It’s just as important to read books that acknowledge the presence of Black music and the contributions of its performers to global pop culture as it is to stream that music regularly. Rickey Vincent’s book is a great read, especially for those who can’t find the names of revolutionary leaders whose names are etched in civil rights history books.

Listen to the voice of soul music during the Black Power moment of 1969-1971 with Rickey Vincent’s “Party Music: The Inside Story of the Black Panthers’ Band and How Black Power Transformed Soul Music.” Grab a copy of the book on Amazon.
