Doug Hammond is a talented drummer, percussionist, and vocalist born on December 26, 1942 in Tampa, Florida. He began his musical journey as a sideman in blues and R&B bands in Florida before expanding his repertoire to include various genres such as blues, bop, and free jazz. In 1967, he co-founded the Detroit Creative Musicians Association where he served as vice president and coordinator. His move to New York in 1970 allowed him to explore different jazz projects both as a frontman and member of groups.

Throughout his career, Hammond's music has evolved to incorporate elements of blues and rhythm chant forms with influences from American and European avant-garde styles. Apart from his musical talents, he is also an accomplished writer with several books of poetry, song lyrics, essays, and drum instructions under his belt.

If you enjoy the sounds of *Marcus Belgrave*, *Calvin Keys*, *Doug Carn*, or any other artists who blend various genres into their music while pushing creative boundaries like Doug Hammond does, then you're sure to appreciate his unique style.

Now Again Records was launched in 2002 by Egon as a subsidiary of Stones Throw Records. With a rich catalogue of 60s & 70s soul & funk, as well as some essential new projects, the label has become a go-to destination for music lovers. In 2012, Now Again Records became independent and secured distribution from various partners including Traffic Entertainment Group.

His passion for digging deep into the crates and unearthing hidden gems is evident in the carefully curated releases on Now Again Records. From rare soul and funk classics to groundbreaking contemporary projects, the label consistently delivers quality music that resonates with listeners.

With its dedication to preserving and celebrating the legacy of soul and funk music from the past while also pushing boundaries with innovative new sounds, Now Again Records has earned a reputation as a trusted source for both collectors and casual fans alike. Whether you're seeking timeless classics or exciting new discoveries, this label is sure to have something that will captivate your ears.

Reflections is now available in a limited-edition yellow vinyl pressing. Originally planned for issue on Strata-East, Hammond took his collaboration with Durrah to Detroit and issued his masterpiece. Lacquered by Bernie Grundman. Now-Again presents the de-nitive Tribe Records reissues. Deep, Spiritual Jazz of the highest order. The Tribe label, one of the brightest lights of America’s 1970s jazz underground, receives the Now-Again reissue treatment. This is your chance to indulge in the music and story of one of the most meaningful, local movements of the 20th Century Black American experience, one that expanded outwards towards the cosmos. In the words of the collective themselves, “Music is the healing force of the universe.” Included in an extensive, oversized booklet, Larry Gabriel and Jeff “Chairman” Mao take us through the history of the Tribe, in a compelling story that delves not just into the history of the label and its principals, but into the story of Black American empowerment in the latter half of the 20th Century. The booklet features never-before-seen archival photos and rare ephemera from Tribe’s mid-1970s heyday.
