Posted 8 Jul 2005 how is this? ss1 ← Not one of my faves. I'm not a huge fan of the Lonnie/Kudo period. Pretty low on the Lonnie list for me, but others may differ. ← On the other hand, I very much find this one a keeper. "Mama Wailer" is a great tune. Pick it up, SS1.

Posted 29 Jul 2005 I know it's got a KILLER "Back at the Chicken Shack." I don't have it, but I should. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 29 Jul 2005 I know it's got a KILLER "Back at the Chicken Shack." I don't have it, but I should. ← It's definately on of Reuben's best recordings ever. He really gets to show himself a little more on this one as opposed to a producer making him play "Ronnie's Bonnie" for the upteenth time (hey, I love that song too!).

Posted 2 Aug 2005 SS1 you burn CD's of the stuff you d/l from emusic? I used to do that cuz its less than the cost of buying an album from Fantasy's list price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 4 Aug 2005 Nice, funky set by Melvin Sparks Band: August 3, 2003. North Beach Jazz Festival., that's worth a listen. Sparks is in pretty good form and the sound is good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 9 Aug 2005 any thoughts?? ← This is an underrated album showcasing Pat in his early days. I can't imagine that you wouldn't like this album. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 9 Aug 2005 Just had to say that, after listening to Let 'em Roll again, that this is a monster record. Latona is such a great song, and the way this cd is sequenced, I mean, can The Shadow Of Your Smile come at any other place? This has to be at the very top of my essential organ records.
