Archie Shepp Quartet Feat Annette Lowman Lover Man Vinyl LP

A soulful, expressive and stylistically wide‑ranging session, Lover Man captures Archie Shepp in a late‑period creative stride — moving effortlessly between post‑bop intensity, blues‑soaked phrasing, swing, ragtime colours and tender balladry. Featuring Annette Lowman on select vocal performances, the album blends Shepp originals with a curated set of standards, all delivered with his unmistakable tone. This 2024 Music On Vinyl expanded edition spreads the full programme across two LPs, offering enhanced warmth, space and dynamic fidelity.
