Black Woman is the debut album by American jazz guitarist Sonny Sharrock, recorded in 1969 and released on the Vortex label.

"[6] In a review for AllMusic, Wilson McCloy awarded the album 3½ stars, and stated: "Black Woman marks an early opportunity for Sharrock's own voice to be heard...

"[1] In The Quietus, Stewart Smith called the album "a stone cold classic" and "an extraordinary piece of energy music that goes way beyond jazz," and praised Linda Sharrock's singing: "She sounds not unlike Albert Ayler, speaking in tongues and summoning the Holy Ghost".

[7] In Trouser Press, Matthew Sumera called the album "a vital item in Sharrock’s catalogue," and wrote: "Sonny and crew whip up a hell of a maelstrom.

For much of the song, Sharrock's wife... emits primal screams, as the intensity of Sonny's rapid guitar chords grows more riotous.
