At WBAI's Free Music Store, 1971 (also released as N.Y.N.Y. 1971) is a live album by multi-instrumentalist and composer Joe McPhee recorded in 1971 and first released on the Swiss HatHut label in 1996.[1]
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "The six lengthy pieces (which are sandwiched by somewhat stilted announcing) are full of fire but also have their quiet and lyrical moments. A strong all-around performance that should not have taken 25 years to release".[2] On All About Jazz, Nic Jones noted "this is a great opportunity to check in with McPhee on street level and follow his musical journey chronologically from there. Live a little and savour the challenge".[3]
