Abbey Lincoln voc; Steve Coleman as; James Weidman p; Billy Johnson b; Mark Johnson dr; Jerry Gonzalez conga; Bemshee Shirer back up voc; Arlene Knox back up voc; Naima Williams back up voc. Recorded in New Yiork, November 25& 26 1983
Abbey Lincoln was born in 1930 into a family of 12 children in Chicago and, later, Michigan. Her family remembers that she grew up at the piano, singing her own songs, and that she was beautiful. In her mid-20s, she appeared in her first Hollywood movie, wearing a dress that Marilyn Monroe had once worn. But as Lincoln found her own way, she burned that dress. In fact, she sewed her own clothes, cutting and stitching, writing poems and melodies, thinking and talking. As her pianist James Weidman says, "She could talk just about anything and give you a perspective you would have never thought of."
