Originally released in 1976 on Muse Records, _Love Dance_ stands as one of Woody Shaw’s most spiritual and forward-thinking sessions. This audiophile reissue restores the album’s full tonal richness, capturing Shaw’s soaring trumpet lines and the ensemble’s dynamic interplay with unprecedented clarity. Shaw leads a powerhouse lineup—including Billy Harper, Steve Turre, René McLean, Cecil McBee and Joe Bonner—through five expansive tracks blending modal jazz, spiritual themes, and post-bop intensity. A landmark in Shaw’s discography, _Love Dance_ is essential listening—now presented with the depth and detail it has always deserved. Remastered directly from the original analog tapes by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab.
