Abbey Lincoln Biography
Jazz siren Abbey Lincoln began performing in the early 1950s. Following her marriage to drummer Max Roach in 1962 she became more politically aware. As well as collaborating with Roach, she began to write some of her own material, much of it stressing the rising tide of black consciousness in the USA. Lincoln also had a simultaneous career as an actress, co-starring in the films NOTHING BUT A MAN (1964) and FOR LOVE OF IVY (1968). She imbued all her recordings with real dramatic presence, focusing on emotive delivery rather than merely facile technique.
