Willis "Gator" Jackson originally made a strong impression as a honking R&B player, first with the Cootie Williams Orchestra, then with his own popular bands. In 1959, starting with this Prestige set (which has been reissued on CD), Jackson made his mark on soul-jazz. Teamed with the up-and-coming organist Jack McDuff, guitarist Bill Jennings, bassist Tommy Potter and drummer Alvin Johnson, Gator is heard modifying his style a little (gone are most of the screams) in favor of swinging. He performs four group originals, "Come Back to Sorrento," and "Memories of You" with soulful feeling. ~ Scott Yanow

Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Hackensack, New Jersey on May 25, 1959. Originally released on Prestige (7162). Includes liner notes by Jack Walker.

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Funky, Bluesy & Soulful Organ Playing
A good band supporting Willis, especially the organist, Jack McDuff. I was inspired to purchase this hard to find CD by the tune "Cool Grits." Deep jazzy organ bass groves. Highly recommeded. Also, some good horn playing by Mr. Jackson. Ken Williams

DREAMS is a 4-CD box set compiling in chronological order tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, as well as tracks by bands featuring one or more member of the Allman Brothers Band and solo performances by Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts. Recorded between 1966 & 1988. Includes a 32-page illustrated booklet and liner notes by John Swenson. Like nearly all box sets, DREAMS has plenty to recommend it-and a few nagging drawbacks. The set's chief shortcoming is its two conflicting goals: providing an overview ...

This compilation contains 38 songs, including many new remixes from original master tapes, 6 previously unreleased songs, alternate versions of 3 others, and a comprehensive 36 page booklet, with historic liner notes and photos. This excellent two-disc collection captures Poco's finest moments from the days when they were laying down the template for all the country-rock music that was to follow. It's hard to remember, but when the Eagles first hit the scene, they were thought by many to be a Poco-wannabe band. Listen to this set and you'll hear why. The Forgotten Trail (1969-1974) culls tracks from Poco's first eight albums, as well as unreleased cuts and singles. From the classic anthem ...

Mary Beth Goodnight, Goodnight CD  (2002)

"Goodnight, Goodnight" is the featured release from Mary Beth Maziarz, on her own Musaic Records label. Mary Beth's music has appeared in several nationally-released films, including 2000's "Broken Hearts Club -- A Romantic Comedy" and the family film, "Coyote Summer." On "Goodnight, Goodnight" Mary Beth's soulful vocals and lush grand piano playing are backed by the depth and richness of layered instrumentation and rhythm tracks, creating at once an original and radio-ready pop sound. Her roots in folk music still shine in well-crafted lyrics and haunting melodies, but a new maturity has appeared in the textures of her fifth independent, and first nationally distributed/radio supported album. Mary Beth grew up in Illinois, and began singing in coffeehouses in Chicago during her college years at Northwestern. After graduation, she moved her life to the beauty and mellow atmosphere of the Utah mountains. The last several years in Park City have allowed her to perform regularly in concert for the thousands of ski visitors that come to Park City each season, both with her band Wild Honey and as one of the Park City Divas. 2002 exposed her music to even more visitors, as Mary Beth performed several shows during the Olympic Winter Games that were held in her hometown in February this year.

As Mary Beth's audience grew, her music drew the attention of the popular television show, "Dawson's Creek." Since first using her music in the ending segment of episode #301, the show has featured Mary Beth's tracks almost a dozen more times -- more than any other artist. Three of these tracks, Hold On, Better Than Anyone, and Aftershocks, drew incredible fan response and appear on "Goodnight, Goodnight." Mary Beth's remake of the Monkees' (and John Stewart's) Daydream Believer was also included as the last track (and only song by an independent artist) on the "Songs from Dawson's Creek -- Volume 2" Soundtrack, released worldwide by Sony Music in October 2000.

In December of 2000, producers of Dawson's Creek invited Mary Beth down to the set in Wilmington, North Carolina to be featured "on camera" on the show. She played herself and performed her original song, "Waiting for a Sign" in episode #416, which aired January 31st, 2001 in the U.S. Mary Beth's last fully-produced album, "Supernatural" topped Amazon's "Emerging Artist" bestsellers list as number 1# selling album on for both the Pop and Adult Contemporary categories for over two months. Recently, Mary Beth's album was ranked ...
