Soul
Dance! is the fifth album led by saxophonist Houston Person, which
was recorded in 1968 and released on the Prestige label.
With
Billy Gardner on organ. Although not as well produced or engineered
as his '70s and '80s Muse recordings, this late '60s date is vintage
Houston Person. He's doing the same mix of blues, ballads, and soul
jazz cuts as always, although with a little less confidence, edge,
and control than he displays on later albums. ~ by Ron Wynn, AMG.
