The record

George Benson's guitar and Red Holloway's tenor share the front while Joe Dukes pushes from the drums and Brother Jack McDuff leans on the organ -- soul jazz caught in front of an audience, which is where this music always sounded best. Prestige gathered the tracks as a compilation in 1969, Don Schlitten designed it, and 'Sanctified Samba' and 'Blues 1 & 8' set the terms.
