Prestige records 1967 ‎– PRST 7467

 

 

 notes:

Soul Fingers captures Morris Nanton at the intersection 
of soul jazz, hard bop and Latin-inflected grooves. 
His relaxed but highly rhythmic piano is supported by the
 long-standing partnership of bassist Norman Edge and 
drummer Al Beldini, with Johnny Murray Jr.'s congas 
adding extra drive. The unusual appearance of 
Pucho & The Latin Soul Brothers on “Troubles Of The World”
 gives the opening track an especially distinctive Latin-soul character.
 Contemporary DownBeat praised the trio while 
noting the contrasting effect of Pucho's appearance.

Jimmy Witherspoon Featuring Ben Webster ‎– Roots

 

Jimmy Witherspoon Featuring Ben Webster – Roots (1961 Reprise LP)   Review

Reprise Records ‎1961– R-6057

notes:

Jimmy Witherspoon laid out two great records in 1962 on Reprise,
'Spoon' and this one. 'Roots' places the great blues singer and
guitarist in the company of saxophonist Ben Webster,
trumpeter Gerald Wilson, and a rhythm section consisting
of pianist Ernie Freeman and drummerJim Miller. The mood is laid-back,
down-home, and full of emotion and sentiment. The warmth of
Witherspoon's voice on material like Your Red Wagon,
I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water, Key to the Highway
(in one of the more unique versions ever recorded), and Jimmy Rushing's
Did You Ever is on the other side of lonesome. Webster and
Wilson underscore the sung lines with fills that accent the deep
 blue in Witherspoon's vocal. Jay McShann's Confessin' the Blues
 is a more jazzed-up arrangement, but Witherspoon's deep in the R&B
groove here, taking a hint from Joe Turner. The finger-popping read
of Turner's It's a Low Down Dirty Shame is n the gutbucket;
the rhythm section swings hard. It's not as raucous as the original, but
Witherspoon's smooth, clear, and deep register is beautifully
complemented first by Wilson's solo and then by Webster's.
The real stunner is near the end, when the band takes on Big Bill Broonzy's
Just a Dream, where Witherspoon wails and moans the blues.
It's just chilling. This is one of those recordings that is a true hidden classic.

Quartette Trés Bien ‎– Kilimanjaro

Decca ‎records 1964– DL 4548

Notes:

This is the first set of recordings but second release by St. Louis group QTB  
Often compared to the Ramsey Lewis/Young-Holt Trio,
Billy Larkin and the Delegates,
Odell Brown & the Organ-izers, The Three Sounds, etc.


One of the earliest albums from the legendary Quartette Trés Bien
-- the hip piano combo from the St Louis scene --
one who were almost to that city's jazz world what Ramsey Lewis
 was to Chicago! Unlike other piano groups of the time,
which were trios, the Quartette featured an additional percussionist
 in their lineup of piano, bass, and drums --
and that added percussion really gives records like this a
super-cool kick -- a romping sort of rhythm that's totally great!
Pianist Jeter Thompson's also one heck of a great writer
 -- as you'll hear on the album's original "Kilimanjaro" --
and percussionist Percy James really makes other.

Quartette Trés Bien – Boss Trés Bien

 Norman Records 1963 – NL-102-B

Notes:

  The Quartette Trés Bien was an American jazz combo based in St. Louis
 led by pianist Jeter Thompson. The group started to play around 1960 and
 began recording in the mid '60s. Jeter Thompson played with Jimmy Forrest,
 Oliver Nelson and Emmett Carter in his early years. The bassist of the group
is Richard Simmons, the drummer Albert St. James who accompanied also
Charlie Parker, Tab Smith and Jimmy Forrest. Percussionist Percy James added
 a Latin flavor to the quartette who played more than ten years, before splitting.
Jeter Thompson is still active leading for a few years the Trio Tres Bien with
brothers Harold Thompson (bass) and Howard Thompson (drums).

notes:

Cal Tjader Quintet – Tjader Goes Latin: The Album That Brought Latin Jazz to the Mainstream
When vibraphonist Cal Tjader released Tjader Goes Latin in 1959, he didn’t just record another 
jazz album—he helped redefine the sound of West Coast jazz. Blending Afro-Cuban rhythms 
with cool jazz sophistication, Tjader Goes Latin stands as a landmark recording
 that introduced Latin jazz to a wider American audience.
