Idris Muhammad - Kabsha

Idris Muhammad — Kabsha 

Transparent Indigo/Deep Pink Marble 180-gram colored vinyl

One-Step pressing

Limited to 1,700 copies

Originally released on the Theresa label in 1980, Kabsha is widely considered to be one of Idris Muhammad's finest sessions as a bandleader. Recorded immediately following his work on Pharoah Sanders' Journey to the One, this album finds the "uber drummer" leading a powerhouse ensemble through a stripped-back and direct performance of pure rhythm and melody.

Featuring tenor titans Pharoah Sanders and George Coleman, the session balances hard-swinging bop with profound spiritual depth. Kabsha captures a vital chapter of Muhammad's career and his enduring musical partnership with Sanders, showcasing the rhythmic brilliance that established him as a cornerstone of the 1980s spiritual and post-bop scene.

Kabsha was released on 180-gram one-step pressing transparent indigo/deep pink marble vinyl LP for Record Store Day on April 18, 2026, limited to just 1,700 copies worldwide.

One-Step vinyl is the ultimate vinyl pressing, meaning the vinyl is pressed from the stamper made directly from the lacquer, minimizing noises and loss of details.
