Saxophone player, composer, pianist, singer, politically committed poet, playwright, Archie Shepp is a legend.
Archie Shepp was born in 1937 in Fort Lauderdale in Florida.

In the late fifties, Archie Shepp also met the most radical musicians of the time: Lee Morgan, Bobby Timmons, Jimmy Garrison, Ted Curson, Beaver Harris ... his political consciousness found an expression in plays and theatrical productions which barely allowed him to make a living. In the beginning sixties he met Cecil Taylor and did two recordings with him which were determining.
