The Jazz Crusaders - Freedom Sound
Label: Pacific Jazz Records - CDP 7 96864-2 Format: CD, Album, Reissue Country: US Released: 1992 Year of original vinyl release: 1961 Genre: Jazz Style: Soul Jazz Tracklist: 1 The Geek 5:38 2 M.J.S. Funk (Alternate Take) 8:14 3 Coon (Alternate Take) 5:45 4 Freedom Sound 8:23 5 Theme From Exodus 3:50 6 That's It 4:44 7 M.J.S. Funk 5:56 8 Coon 4:19 Personnel: Wilton Felder - sax Wayne Henderson - trombone Joe Sample - piano Roy Gaines - guitar Jimmy Bond - bass Stix Hooper - drums  The first album by the Jazz Crusaders (which started an extensive series for Pacific Jazz) introduced the colorful quintet. With trombonist Wayne Henderson and tenor saxophonist Wilton Felder giving the ensembles a unique sound, the group (also featuring regular members pianist Joe Sample and drummer Stix Hooper along with guests Jimmy Bond on bass and guitarist Roy Gaines) managed to strike a balance between creative hard bop and accessible soul-jazz. In addition to their version of "Theme From Exodus" (hoping to jump on the bandwagon created by Eddie Harris' hit rendition), the Jazz Crusaders perform originals by Felder, Henderson, and Sample ("Freedom Sound"). - review by Scott Yanow, allmusic.com Sharing Widget |
