Archie Shepp - Sous Le Ciel de Paris

Archie Shepp - Sous le ciel de Paris Photographer - Peter Turnley [French Kiss – A Love Letter to Paris] “The theme of love in Paris is implicitly intertwined with the heart of Paris itself.“ _____Peter Turnley_____ ___ Sous le ciel de Paris was written by Hubert Yves Adrien Giraud. This version is the secondlast track on the CD Deja Vu by Archie Shepp, recorded in NYC, 2001, and released in 2001 on Venus Records. ___ Archie Shepp has long established a reputation as a fiery avant-garde jazz stylist, though he is remarkably restrained in this collection of ballads recorded in 2001. The rhapsodic songs help restrain him somewhat, along with the presence of the terrific rhythm section, consisting of pianist Harold Mabern, bassist George Mraz, and drummer Billy Drummond.
