Title: Attica Blues
Artist: Archie Shepp
Label: Mr Bongo
Product Type: 7-INCH SINGLE
UPC: 7119691260273
Genre: Jazz
Release Date: 2019-08-02
Number of Discs: 1
Previously Japan-only 7" featuring two tracks originally released on Shepp's 1972 classic soul-jazz LP, 'Attica Blues'. Official Mr Bongo reissue. Licensed courtesy of Universal Music Group Limited. A powerful mix of psychedelic soul & jazz that retains Shepp's political sentiment of his earlier works. 'Attic Blues' is a huge funk-soul composition, referring to a mass shooting of inmates at Attica Prison. Henry Hull's vocal sits on top of bass, layered percussion, wah-wah guitars, plus large horn and string sections to create a massive sound. The big band, almost soundtrack-esque, 'Quiet Dawn', is sung by the composer's 7-year old daughter. She floats on top of piano, strings, drums and rich layers of percussion.
Tracks:
1.1 Attica Blues
1.2 Quiet Dawn
