"Soundmusication" ist das dritte und letzte Album des jamaikanischen Tenor-Saxophonisten Fitz Gore, eine weitere seltene und schöne spirituelle Jazz-LP aus den späten 1970ern. "Fitz hatte einen sehr tiefgründigen Glauben an die richtige Musik, die die Welt verändern und einen wirklichen Zustand des Friedens schaffen kann, weil sie die Gefühle und Handlungen der Menschen hin zur spirituellen Wahrheit bewegt. Er war überzeugt, daß Musik die heilende Kraft der Welt besitzt" (Ulrich Kurth). Fitz spielt mit Lukoki Mampasi am E-Piano, Obama Ngomo am Bass, Emmanuel Dipanda am Schlagzeug oder Gil Nguema an der Gitarre. Sie öffnen eine imaginäre Tür und ermöglichen ihrem Leader so die erstaunlichsten Dinge auf seinem Instrument. Erste Wiederveröffentlichung, neu gemastert in 2022, mit Original-Artworks und dem Bonustrack "Gisela (Lion Rock)".
