Lateef at Cranbrook (also reissued as Yusef Lateef) is a live album by multi-instrumentalist Yusef Lateef recorded in 1958 at the Cranbrook Academy of Art and released on the Argo label.
A rare treasure from Yusef Lateef -- one of his hardest to find albums, recorded right around the same time as his magical work for Savoy! The record has Lateef playing in his local Detroit area -- working with Terry Pollard on piano, William Austin on bass, and Frank Gant on a host of percussion instruments. The tracks have that open, percussive, and exotic feel that we love the most in Lateef -- soul jazz taken to a very righteous territory, and one of the first powerful flowerings of the Detroit underground. Includes a really long version of "Morning", plus "Let Every Soul Say Amen", "Brazil", and "Woody N You" - Dusty Groove

9 track album
Track 165 — Clarity
After weariness (Bb minor, 5 flats) and reverie (Db major, 5 flats), one flat lifts away. Ab major. The mind sharpens.
Oboe leads — the clearest voice in the orchestra. Violin soars. Harp crystallizes. Celesta sparkles like moments of insight. Cello grounds.
The 4-track arc: Perseverance → Weariness → Reverie → Clarity.
59th unique emotion. 165 tracks. Cycle 203.
