Mose Allison, Lessons in Living, 1983 on Elektra Musician

Recorded live at the Montreux Jazz Festival July 21st, 1982 with Jack Bruce (bass), Billy Cobham (drums), Lou Donaldson (alto sax), and Eric Gale (guitar) joining Allison.

Elektra Musician was a jazz oriented subsidiary of Elektra/Asylum, and started in 1982 – it was absorbed into Nonesuch in 1994.

My copy—via Aux 33 Tours in Montréal QC—is a Speciality pressing with a promo stamp and printed promotional use label.

lou donaldson - here ‘tis

Tone Poet Society release of this 1961 session from Donaldson (sax), Grant Green (guitar), "Baby Face" Willette (organ), and Dave Bailey (drums) has a heavy emphasis on blues and soul-jazz, with some hard bop.

Lots of good moments, and although I tend to prefer piano/bass in there rather than organ, Willette's playing is hard to dismiss.

Alligator Bogaloo is an album by #jazz #saxophonist #LouDonaldson recorded for the #BlueNote label in 1967 and featuring Donaldson with #MelvinLastie, #LonnieSmith, #GeorgeBenson, and #LeoMorris (later to be better known as Idris Muhammad). The success of the title track surprised Donaldson: "[W]e made the date and we were three minutes short. I said we don't have no more material. And the guy said just play anything for three minutes so we can fill out the time. So I just made the riff.
