World-renowned Archie Shepp needs no introductions: he is one of the greatest American saxophonists and one of the last living 'giants' of 20th Century jazz.In the wake of Cecil Taylor and John Coltrane Shepp was one of the driving forces of New York avant-garde jazz in the 1960s. Now Shepp has travelled back to the musical roots of his people: the blues. Today both as an instrumentalist and singer he is one of the most irresistible jazz performers. This untiring champion of African American culture is also one of the oldest and dearest friends of the New Morning... jazz club. In 1978 it was he who inaugurated the big stage of the New Morning in Geneva; at exactly the place where we taped him in august 1994 with the late master pianist Horace Parlan Wayne Dockery and Steve McCraven.
