The record
A guitarist better known for backing Jimmy Smith steps out front here, riding Larry Young's organ (well before his own modal turn) and Bill Leslie's tenor through a session of greasy, unhurried soul-jazz. Argo's early-'60s house style suits the date well -- bluesy, groove-first, built for late nights at the bar.
