no dawg that IS the front.  i did a shot of a one handed flip of it to prove it.  in pic 1 you can see the lp 1/2 way out of the jacket, on the RIGHT side.  the back slick IS the front slick, no actual "back".  yea im guessing a promo-- isnt it wild!!!!!

ah right, okay that makes sense. Nice find.

He HAD had a regular working band until he started at Blue Note. Then two of the members went other ways.

His first recording was an album on Brunswick 754162: "Walk on by" by the Wildare Express, which was Trevor Lawrence, Fats Theus (ts), Thornell Schwatz (g), Tommy Derrick (d). Wildare is obviously a combination of Wilson and Derrick. Derrick and Lawrence were on "On Broadway"; Theus and Schwartz (http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?/topic/27414-thornel-schwartz/) had gone to work for Jimmy McGriff by then.

Lawrence went on to be a decent session man, recording with Freddie King, King Curtis, Mango Santamania, Chuck Rainey and Howard Tate. He arranged and conducted Etta James' two superb albums "Etta James" and "Come a little closer" on Chess.

Derrick worked with Reuben through to 1974, then disappeared.

If you see the WIldare Express album, get it. I haven't got it, so I dunno what it's like but, with those people...
