Blue Flames is a collaboration album by organist Shirley Scott and saxophonist Stanley Turrentine recorded in 1964 and released on the Prestige label. Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars stating "All of the many collaborations between organist Shirley Scott and tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine in the 1960s resulted in high-quality soul jazz, groovin' music that was boppish enough to interest jazz listeners and basic enough for a wider audience" - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuqPKhuS7hQ&list=RDCuqPKhuS7hQ&start_radio=1 #ShirleyScott #StanleyTurrentine #HardBop #soulJazz #PrestigeRecords #Jazz #Music

Brer Soul is the debut studio album of Melvin Van Peebles. Released in 1968, the album introduced Van Peebles as a recording artist, following his work as an independent filmmaker, playwright and novelist. It is notable for its use of sprechgesang, a vocal style which lies between speaking and singing. Unlike later albums, which are more varied in style, Brer Soul features an experimental spoken word style, with soul jazz instrumentation. Van Peebles' unconventional songwriting style has since been cited as an influence on hip hop music and rapping. - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrAxMUxeFDA&list=PLMpbJrT3jaB6T6HfpBo-PrTnnl7231C4W&index=1 #MelvinVanPeebles #Sprechgesang #Music #SoulJazz #SpokenWord

Think! is the second album by American organist Lonnie Smith recorded in 1968 and released on the Blue Note label. The Allmusic review by Matt Collar awarded the album 4½ stars and stated "Think!, organist Lonnie Smith's 1968 release for Blue Note, is easily one of the strongest dates the Hammond B-3 master would produce for the label". - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7V5Yg3xI8Bs&list=OLAK5uy_mVxAEm7NTC8pGwOQ4rRDe58BzJXy0-L2M&index=1 #LonnieSmith #HammondOrgan #LeeMorgan #DavidNewman #Melvin Sparks #Jazz #SoulJazz #Music #BlueNote #Funk #ArethaFranklin

The Grass Is Greener by Grassella Oliphant released on Atlantic in 1967. Review by Stephen Cook ...With guitarist Grant Green and B-3 master John Patton completing the classic organ combo setup, the trio particularly stretch out on fine numbers like "Cantaloupe Woman" and Patton's own "Soul Woman." While these cuts are marked by a progressive, almost modal sound, much of the other material, which also features tenor saxophonist Harold Ousley and trumpeter Clark Terry, has a more down home and groove-heavy flavor; this is especially true on Terry's "Peaches Are Better Down the Road" and a cover of Allen Toussaint's classic bit of New Orleans soul, "Get Out of My Life Woman." Other standouts include a rendition of Marvin Gaye's "Ain't That Peculiar" and Ousley's breezy Latin swinger "The Latter Days." A great set. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8JfOvdKa-Q #GrassellaOliphant #ClarkTerry #JohnPatton #GrantGreen #Jazz #SoulJazz #Music

Workin' by Shirley Scott, released on Prestige in 1967 Review by Stewart Mason ...Scott plays with her typical fluidity and taste throughout. "You're My Everything" even manages the difficult feat of having piano and organ coexist in a small-combo setting without sounding needlessly cluttered, by having Scott trade choruses with Ronnell Bright, each wisely laying out while the other one takes over. Start with the Scott/Turrentine dates first, but check this one out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWLJ1Gv-dto&list=RDwWLJ1Gv-dto&start_radio=1 #ShirleyScott #Jazz #JazzOrgan #SoulJazz #PrestigeRecords #Music

Hootin' 'n Tootin' is the debut album by American saxophonist Fred Jackson, and the sole recording under his leadership, recorded in 1962 and released on the Blue Note label. The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4½ stars and stated "Hootin' 'n Tootin' is a thoroughly enjoyable set of funky soul-jazz with hard bop overtones. It is true that Jackson doesn't try anything new on the set, but he proves to be a capable leader... the result is a modest but highly entertaining set of earthy, bluesy soul-jazz that should have been heard by a wider audience" - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAf0UfDG_00&list=PLqvV6qdeqPXoA87EwDrzf1ODeDHgv6kHc&index=1 #FredJackson #SoulJazz #HardBop #BlueNote #Music #Jazz #EarlVanDyke

Honeybuns is the seventh album by American pianist and arranger Duke Pearson featuring performances by Pearson's nonet recorded in 1965 and released on the Atlantic label in 1966. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars stating "Pearson performs music in a style that would have fit in quite well on Blue Note ...

Encore by Arthur Verocai Featuring Azymuth & Ivan Lins, released on Far Out Recordings in 2007. "After decades of cult reverence for his 1972 masterpiece, Arthur Verocai returned with Encore — an album that feels less like a comeback than a revelation. Recorded in Rio with a dream ensemble including Azymuth and Ivan Lins, it bridges generations of Brazilian musicianship into a single, radiant expression. Strings swirl with cinematic poise, horns breathe like dialogue, and Verocai’s arrangements glide between soul-jazz sophistication and Brazilian rhythmic intricacy. Tracks like “Bis,” “Filhos,” and “Daquele Jeito” glow with nostalgia and invention — the feeling of remembering something you’ve never heard before."

Stretchin' Out is the seventh album by The Jazz Crusaders recorded in 1964 (with one track from 1963) and released on the Pacific Jazz label. - Wikipedia The Jazz Crusaders at their early best -- swinging hard, and virtually defining the sound of soul jazz on the west coast scene of the 60s! The sound here is impeccable -- tight rhythms overlaid with searing solos -- all the best the young group had to offer, thanks to the early genius of Wayne Henderson on trombone, Wilton Felder on tenor and alto, Joe Sample on piano, and Stix Hooper on drums. The set also features a bit of guitar from Joe Pass, and bass from Monk Montgomery -- who brings in a nice bottom to the rhythms -- furthering the groove that really keeps things going! . - Dusty Groove https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIrEuoZfd2A&list=PLfJndz0utgOMHORP2lBWgK-jQWb-S2crT&index=1 #JazzCrusaders #WayneHenderson #WiltonFelder #JoeSample #StixHooper #JoePass #SoulJazz #PacificJazz #Jazz #Music
