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.

Re-released on vinyl in January 2026 and remastered directly from the original analog tapes by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab. The CD is packaged in a 4-panel digipak with 8-page booklet with newly written liner notes by Bob Blumenthal and Barney Fields with a rare photograph by K. Abe.
