24 Bit version
Born in 1937 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and raised in Philadelphia, Archie Shepp studied drama before turning to music professionally. In the sixties he worked with Cecil Taylor, John Coltrane, Don Cherry and other avantgarde leaders and soon became one of the most important figures in the black New Thing movement. From the seventies to the early 2000s he was a professor in the African-American Studies department at University of Massachusetts, Amherst, where he taught both music and music history. The live album "Steam" is among the best and liveliest documents of his career showing his saxophonistic power and improvisational authority. "My sound has never been recorded better," says the artist. British Hifi News & Record Review reads: "A glorious unrolling of bluesy confessions and romantic sighs." American Down Beat called the album "pre-eminent, a super recording" and gave it 4 stars.
This colorful live LP features Archie Shepp on tenor, and a bit of his more basic piano, playing three lengthy compositions (Duke Ellington's "Solitude," Cal Massey's "A Message from Trane" and Shepp's own "Steam") in a sparse trio with bassist Cameron Brown and drummer Beaver Harris. The avant-garde innovator Shepp still sounds pretty strong at what was for him a fairly late period, displaying his distinctive raspy tone and what were for him some typically emotional ideas. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
