The record
Two guitarists trade turns here -- George Benson's fluid runs against Sterling Magee's rawer attack -- while Dave 'Baby' Cortez's organ and Earl Williams' congas hold down a thick, chitlin-circuit groove. Jackson's horn stays firmly in honking territory throughout this Trip-label session.
