About this album

Bicentennial Gathering Of The Tribes is a sharp late-period statement from Buddy Miles, bringing together blues rock, soul and funk with a strongly political edge. Released in 1976, the album reflects the era’s shifting crossover between rock, Black soul and disco-informed rhythms, while Miles’ gritty vocals and rhythmic drive keep it firmly rooted in his distinctive style. Best known as a powerful drummer, singer and bandleader, Miles uses the record to push beyond genre boundaries and turn social commentary into forceful, accessible groove music. It stands as an overlooked example of his restless creativity and his knack for fusing heaviness with immediate hooks.
