Questlove explains how his film Summer of Soul excavates a moment of Black musical excellence, the Harlem Cultural Festival, that was forgotten for decades.
I have lost count of the number of concerts that I have seen in this lifetime. But there are a few that have left a Memorex memory. One of them is
The Roots. It was the mid 1990s. And the venue was the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C.
I was in grad school at Howard, so down time with lots of music was imperative for my sanity.
Do You Want More ?!!!??!, the “Illadelphia” band’s second studio album, stayed in constant rotation on my CD player. And finally experiencing them in person was glorious. They were artists who altered the course of urban music by producing an organic hip hop jazz soundtrack of an unforgettable time in many lives.

A moment in Black music history might have been lost forever, had the musician, historian and now documentarian Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson not stepped in.
Footage from 1969’s Harlem Cultural Festival had been collecting dust in a widow’s basement for nearly 50 years but in 2016, an opportunity fell into Thompson’s lap when David Dinerstein and Robert Fyvolent asked for five minutes of his time.
As the two men told him details of the festival, which had featured musical greats like Stevie Wonder, Sly and the Family Stone, Mahalia Jackson and Nina Simone, Thompson figured there was no way he wouldn’t have known about such a monumental event.
