For those that like the Hammond B3 and artists like Jimmy McGriff, Jack McDuff, Jimmy Smith, Richard 'Groove' Holmes, Bill Doggett etc. you will like this album by Hank Marr. Plus, this marks the recording debut of future avant-gardists George Adams and James 'Blood' Ulmer. Soul Jazz at it's finest.
****There is some question about this being Rusty Bryant and not George Adams on tenor. From what I have read the consensus is that it is Adams. I do not particularly like avant-garde or free jazz or Adams later work so I cannot tell by listening, although avant-garde is not what he is playing here as this is his earliest work. Perhaps there may be a George Adams fan who reads this and DL's the music who may be able to shed some light on this question.

Looking forward to this possible gem.
ReplyDeleteSeasons Greetings to all KCCrypters.
Many thanks.
thanks deGallo keen to hear this B3 gem
ReplyDeleteDear deGallo and KC, fantastic find and I can now complete my Marr collection. Many thanks
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, deGallo !
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing, never heard of Marr but I love this era of King Records. Also BIG thanks for the hot link. It just happened that I was DLing one of grumpy's files and would have probably not come back to this for a few days. I'm really curious to hear Adams and Ulmer in a relaxed setting. Truthfully I never enjoyed Adams later quartet work that he is so famous for.
ReplyDeleteI, also, do not like Adams later style.
ReplyDeleteRegarding Marr, he has a few CDs that I posted somewhere several years ago. I have one other rare LP called Teentime but it is not appropriate for this blog. I know a lot of people do not favor the organ but I do in a small group setting.
