notes:

Mama Wailer is an album by American jazz organist Lonnie Smith 
recorded in 1971 and released on the Kudu label.
The album has only four tracks: two originals by Smith
(Mama Wailer, Hola Muneca) and two reinterpretations of contemporary 
pop/funk songs. The long Stand is a deep funk-infused jazz exploration 
and takes up the entire second side of the LP.
