‘Selma’ Marches to the Music of Yusef Lateef

January 9, 2015
Selma

Yusef Lateef’s “Bamboo Flute Blues” is featured in a key scene in SELMA, the buzzing drama chronicling the historic voting rights march of 1965.

The track, from Lateef’s groundbreaking mid-’60s jazz album ‘Psychicemotus,’ plays as David Oyelowo’s Martin Luther King and Colman Domingo’s Ralph Abernathy strategize logistics for the march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama.
