“Everything he play[s] is dramatic and
expansive.”
–The New York Times

A rare U.S. concert by an icon from the 1960s free jazz era! Known for his collaborations with New Thing avatars Cecil Taylor and John Coltrane, Shepp refined an Afrocentric methodology on his classic albums Fire Music and The Magic of Ju-Ju. Shepp combines a rigor- ously intellectual improvisational approach with a gruff, emotionally bracing sound, and radical political thought.
