Sonny Sharrock is an awesome and very original free jazz guitarist, and his first album was basically dedicated to his amazingly talented wife, who could free jazz belt like, no other I can really think of. Sonny Sharrock, died last decade, after many album, and Linda is still a jazz singer and an amazing avant garde musician... alive and barely known.

This is one of the loveliest albums from a couple (Black Women) I've ever heard... here is the incredibly powerful opening track...
