“Black Sabbath” is the first compilation ever to showcase legendary Black artists covering Jewish songs. Focusing on the 1930s through the 1960s, it uses popular music to shed light on the historical, political, spiritual, economic, and cultural connections between Black and Jewish-Americans. Featuring Aretha Franklin, Lena Horne, Cab Calloway, and many others, Black Sabbath explores the myriad ways that the Jewish and the Black community have coalesced and clashed, struggled against each other and struggled alongside each other. This is the soundtrack to a rarely told American story.
