When the mood was right, free-jazz firebrand Archie Shepp could also be as lyrical and melodic as the next man.
Here's the lovely Down in Brazil from 1975's There's A Trumpet In My Soul. Vocals by Bill Willingham. I love the long fade out at the end, and there was many a night back in my college years when I'd fall asleep while this, the closing track on Side 1, played itself out on the turntable.
