The record
A compilation, and the credits name only two players: Jackson's tenor and Brother Jack McDuff's organ. Six sides gathered as Prestige PR 7702 in 1969, lacquer cut by David Hancock. Titles like 'Gator Tail' and 'Cookin' Sherry' tell you the register -- greasy, unhurried, and not remotely interested in being difficult.
Tracks
- Cookin' Sherry
