jazzbo Posted February 5, 2021 Report Posted February 5, 2021 Archie Shepp "For Losers" Impulse/Universal Japan SHM-CD 2021. I'm enjoying reliving these Shepps in the new (great sounding) SHM-CDs from Japan. So much drama in the Shepp music of this era. I think Shepp would have made a great actor in progressive movies during this time. A missed opportunity! I love the ALS pastiche that is "Un Croque Monsieur" . . . . Just look at the cast on these recordings! Track 1 Archie Shepp - tenor saxophone, soprano saxophone Leon Thomas - lead vocals Martin Banks - trumpet, flugelhorn Robin Kenyatta - alto saxophone, flute Andrew Bey - piano Bert Payne - guitar Albert Winston - electric bass, bass Tasha Thomas, Doris Troy - backing vocals Beaver Harris - drums Track 2 Archie Shepp - tenor saxophone Jimmy Owens - trumpet Grachan Moncur III - trombone James Spaulding- alto saxophone Charles Davis - baritone saxophone Dave Burrell - organ Wally Richardson - guitar Bob Bushnell - electric bass Bernard Purdie - drums Tracks 3-5 Archie Shepp - tenor saxophone Woody Shaw - trumpet Matthew Gee - trombone Cedar Walton - piano Wilbur Ware - bass Joe Chambers - drums Clarence Sharpe - alto saxophone (3 and 5) China-Lin Sharpe - vocals (3 and 5) Cecil Payne - baritone saxophone, flute (4-5) Quote

It's a concept record, really, "who gives a damn for losers?" The voice of China-Lin Sharpe speaks to that theme both explicitly and implicitly, as does, to varying degrees, the personnel. apparently this is far from a universally held opinion, but it is my opinion, and nothing has changed over the last 50-ish years to do anything but strengthen it. Old folks too often have to repeat themselves, so apologies for this post. Quote

It is by the Australian Votary people I think - they say it is from the master tapes. You know what though - the Vocalion sonics are so damn good, I’m not going to bother. 3 great tracks but the last track to my mind is a bit of a jam and not to the same level. Still - worth having if you don’t already have it. Quote

Is that the one that came out at the same time as the Vocalion CD? Didn’t realise it was a boot. I wonder if Vocalion had access to Adrian Kerridge’s tape set - in which case they used the bone fine masters and not the copies from Universal. Same source was used for that great and short lived Mike Taylor ‘Pendulum’ CD. 1 hour ago, mjazzg said: Prompted by the LP reissue appearing in listings recently? Correct - you mean HJ’s latest offerings page? Wallets need to be hidden when going anywhere near there. 2CD - More from Vocalion. Jeff Clyne, Pepi Lemer and co. Remember seeing this band at Ronnie’s as a lead-in to one of the US groups. Quote
