Capitol Records 1964 ‎– ST 2095

 

notes:


Released in 1964 on Capitol Records, Soul Serenade 
is one of the finest albums by legendary saxophonist 
King Curtis, blending soul, rhythm & blues, jazz, and pop
into a polished instrumental collection. By the early 1960s
, Curtis had already established himself as one of 
America's most in-demand session musicians, r
ecording with artists ranging from Aretha Franklin and 
The Coasters to Buddy Holly and countless Atlantic Records stars.
Built around his warm, expressive tenor saxophone tone, 
Soul Serenade showcases Curtis' remarkable ability to transform
 contemporary pop songs, blues standards, and soulful ballads 
into memorable instrumental performances. The title track became
 one of his signature recordings, combining gospel-inspired phrasing
 with sophisticated jazz arrangements that
 appealed to both R&B and mainstream audiences.

Billy Preston – Wildest Organ In Town! (1966)

 
 
 
 
 
 
Billy Preston Wildest Organ In Town 1966 Capitol Records ST-2532 vintage soul and funk vinyl LP album cover.

Capitol Records 1965 – ST2532

 

notes:


Before becoming known as the "Fifth Beatle" and collaborating 
with music legends such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and 
Eric Clapton, Billy Preston was already demonstrating extraordinary 
talent on the Hammond organ. Released in 1966 on Capitol Records, 
Wildest Organ In Town! (Catalog Number: T2532) captures the 
young musician's electrifying energy and remarkable command 
of soul, rhythm and blues, and jazz influences.

This album highlights Preston's unique ability to blend 
gospel-rooted expression with the groove-driven sounds that
 defined the mid-1960s. From upbeat instrumentals to soulful 
interpretations, Wildest Organ In Town! showcases the musical 
brilliance that would later earn Preston worldwide recognition.

Although Billy Preston would later achieve greater commercial 
success through collaborations with some of the biggest names
 in music history, Wildest Organ In Town! remains a fascinating 
early showcase of his immense talent. The album captures a 
young artist already displaying the musical creativity and technical 
skill that would make him one of 
the most respected keyboard players of his generation.
Whether you're a longtime fan of Billy Preston or discovering
his early recordings for the first time, Wildest Organ In Town! 
offers a rewarding journey into the roots of a legendary musician.

Billy Preston – Club Meetin' (Capitol T 2607)

 
 
 
 
 
 
Billy Preston Club Meetin' Capitol Records T 2607 original 1967 vinyl album cover

Capitol Records 1965 – T 2607

 

 notes:


Few musicians embodied the spirit of soul, gospel, rhythm & blues, 
and Hammond organ mastery quite like Billy Preston. Released 
on Capitol Records as catalog number T 2607, Club Meetin' 
captures Preston in a vibrant live setting, delivering energetic 
performances that showcase his extraordinary keyboard skills 
and deep gospel roots. Recorded at The Trip nightclub on the 
Sunset Strip in West Hollywood and released in 1967, this album 
stands as one of the hidden gems of the classic soul-jazz era. 
Featuring memorable interpretations of "Sunny," "Summertime," 
and a dynamic James Brown medley, Club Meetin' remains an 
essential listen for collectors of vintage R&B, Hammond organ 
recordings, and rare Capitol Records vinyl releases.

credits:


Unfortunately, Capitol did not publish a complete personnel
 list on the original LP, 
and no authoritative session documentation has surfaced.

Confirmed

Billy Preston – Hammond organ, electric piano, vocals
The Soul Brothers – backing vocal group on:
"No Man Is an Island"
"Let the Music Play"

The album was recorded live at The Trip, a famous 
Sunset Strip nightclub in West Hollywood.

Evidence from contemporary advertisements and venue 
schedules places Billy Preston at The Trip during 
11–17 November 1965, making those performances the 
most likely source of the recordings used on the album.
 Capitol later released the album in March 1967.

Willie Tee – I’m Only A Man (1970 LP)

 
 
 
 

Willie Tee – I’m Only A Man (1970 LP) | Capitol Records ST-199 | Soul Funk Review

 
 
 
 
 

Willie Tee I'm Only A Man LP cover Capitol Records ST-199 1970 soul funk album

Capitol Records 1969  ‎– ST199

notes:


Willie Tee stands as one of the most underrated figures in 
New Orleans soul. With the release of I’m Only A Man in 1970 
on Capitol Records, he delivered a powerful mix of deep soul,
 funk grooves, and socially conscious songwriting.
Often overlooked in favor of bigger names of the era, this LP 
(catalog number ST-199) has since become a sought-after 
gem among collectors of vintage soul and rare groove.
Recorded during a period of intense musical evolution, 
I’m Only A Man captures Willie Tee’s ability to blend raw 
emotion with tight, funky arrangements. The album moves
 effortlessly between introspective ballads and rhythm-driven 
tracks, reflecting both personal and societal themes of the early 1970s.
Backed by polished production and rich instrumentation, the record 
highlights Tee’s expressive vocals and sophisticated songwriting 
approach. It’s a record that feels both intimate 
and expansive at the same time.

Jimmy McGriff & Junior Parker – Capitol Records ST-569 (1970)








Jimmy McGriff & Junior Parker ST-569 (1970) – Capitol Records LP




Front cover of Jimmy McGriff and Junior Parker, Capitol Records ST-569 released in 1970, featuring soul blues and Hammond organ grooves.

Capitol Records 1970 ‎– ST-569

 

notes:


Released in 1970 on Capitol Records, Jimmy McGriff and Junior Parker 
(ST-569) brought together two giants of the soul-blues world. 
Hammond organ master Jimmy McGriff had already established 
himself as one of the leading figures of soul jazz,
 while Junior Parker was renowned for his smooth, expressive 
blues vocals and influential recordings dating back to the 1950s.

The album captures the perfect meeting point between blues,
 soul, R&B and jazz. McGriff's driving organ grooves provide a
 rich backdrop for Parker's warm vocal delivery, creating a sound 
that appealed equally to blues fans and soul music audiences.
 Recorded during a period when blues artists were increasingly
 embracing modern soul influences, the LP remains a fine 
example of late-1960s and early-1970s urban blues.

Today, the album is sought after by collectors of blues, 
soul and Hammond organ recordings, representing an 
important collaboration between two legendary performers
whose careers helped shape modern Black American music.

notes:

Mercy, Mercy, Mercy! Live at "The Club" is a 1967 live in-studio album
by The Cannonball Adderley Quintet, the jazz group formed by musician
 Cannonball Adderley. It received the Grammy Award for Best Instrumental
Jazz Performance – Group or Soloist with Group in 1967.
 and was added to the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2021.

Though the original liner notes state that it was recorded
 at the Club DeLisa in Chicago, it was actually recorded at
 Capitol's Hollywood studio with an invited audience and an open bar.
The reason for this discrepancy, according to the liner notes in the CD
reissue, is that Adderley and the new manager of Club DeLisa
(which had been renamed "The Club", after operating for years in
Chicago under its old name) were friends, and Adderley
 offered to give the club a bit of free publicity.
