  1. Abbey Lincoln, Golden Lady, 1981 on Inner City

    Originally issued by Blue Marge in France under the name Painted Lady (Abbey Lincoln in Paris), the first US issue was on Inner City Records under the name Golden Lady. Aminata Moseka, the name she adopted in the mid seventies, also appears in a parenthetical on the cover, along with Archie Shepp who accompanies her.

    Recorded in Paris in 1980.

    My copy—via Academy Records in NYC—is a 1981 release pressed by Hub-Servall and mastered at Europadisk.

    We were recently #Purple but this week we’re specifically #Violet.

    Archie Shepp Quartet, “Violets for Your Furs” from True Ballads (1997)

    I’ve recently become somewhat obsessed with saxophonist Archie Shepp.
    I cannot get enough of his soulful breathy style and penchant for playing ballads rather than the uptempo bebop favored by so many jazz greats, that neither my intellect nor attention span can handle. Shepp’s playing has a mournful tone that somehow soothes.

    As luck would have it, I was listening to his album True Ballads yesterday, with final track “Violets for Your Furs.” The song was composed by Matt Dennis with words by Tom Adair in 1941 and first recorded by Frank Sinatra singing with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, and been recorded numerous times since, including renditions by folks with names like Coltrane and Holiday.

    Like many jazz tracks, it’s longer than your standard pop tune, so settle in and give it a listen - it’s gorgeous, man.

    Le jazz n’est pas un mot de mon vocabulaire. Il n’existe pas de définition universelle. Chacun a la sienne. Ma préférée est sans doute celle de Fats Waller répondant à une dame de la bonne société : si vous ne le connaissez pas déjà, vous ne le connaîtrez jamais.

    #AccraShepp

    Sa musique était profondément liée au mouvement Black Power des années 1960.

  16. Archie Shepp - Four for Trane

    Co-produced by Coltrane, this is Shepp's Impulse debut, featuring, as you might expect, all tracks penned by Coltrane.

    But that doesn't mean they're *profoundly* altered by Archie Shepp and crew.

    Shepp (sax) is joined by John Tchicai (alto), Alan Shorter (trumpet - Wayne's brother), Roswell Rudd (trombone), Reggie Workman (bass), and Charles Moffett (drums)/

  21. The looks that I get from colleagues while apparently I'm playing music on my headphones a tad too loud and Archie Shepp is butchering "The Girl from Ipanema".
    "what the hell is he listening to!?"

    Butchering in a good way, btw. Obviously.
