This might be some of the grooviest Jug I've heard.

Yes, thanks! I believe to OJC adds an alternate take not on the original.

This was a date Prestige (or maybe Fantasy) licensed from another label, correct? In any event, more fine Jackie from his pre-BN era, and a super-rare opportunity to hear how he sounded outside the studio.

I feel like this is a story that needs to be told to a larger audience.

That I did not know!

One cannot overstate the incredible influence Black high school music teachers and bandleaders have had on the evolution of American music. Dyett in Chicago, Samual R. Browne in LA, G.A. Baxter at I.M. Terrell in Ft. Worth... And was it Harry Begian at Cass Tech? https://ethaniverson.com/black-music-teachers-in-the-era-of-segregation/

It's a good question. I've always thought of him as belonging to the Prez family tree. But then there's the Walter Dyett factor. Von Freeman, Cliff Jordan, John Gilmore, Johnny Griffin... he tutored a lot of unique tenor players.

Getz had clearly been listening to Sonny and Wayne, but he's still Getz. With Stanley Cowell, Miroslav Vitous, and Jack DeJohnette.

Thank you for sharing this.

Slow down Zev! (Actually, please don't).

Hell yeah!

And Jeff Parker. It's a good 'un, and 'un I'd almost completely forgotten about.

Yeah, they've been cagey about it, but this is definitely a track Page and Plant finished together post-Bonham. You can audition the original backing track on YouTube.

Here's an exhaustive if not official analysis of Plant's relationship with his voice.

Claire Daly has been mentioned, but she's worth mentioning again. Always liked her work with People Like Us, and she's still making records. https://clairedaly.bandcamp.com/album/2648-west-grand-boulevard
