Recorded in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey on April 21 and September 18, 1960. Includes liner notes by Jerry Wexler.
Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1994, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
King Curtis, an influential and greatly in-demand R&B tenorman, made relatively few jazz dates in his career. This CD has two of the best, complete albums originally called The New Scene of King Curtis and Soul Meeting; the former is also available as a separate CD but should be skipped in favor of this one. Curtis teams up with the passionate cornetist Nat Adderley, pianist Wynton Kelly, either Paul Chambers or Sam Jones on bass and Oliver Jackson or Belton Evans on drums. The music is blues-based bop, with seven basic Curtis originals and four standards. Highly recommended, this set serves as proof that King Curtis could have been a viable jazz player. ~ Scott Yanow

$14.55 A veteran tenor saxophonist who gained early recognition for his work with the Lennie Tristano school, Ted Brown has remained fairly obscure despite his consistent creativity.

Other than his own "Smog Eyes" and the lesser-known "Trane's Slo Blues," all of the tunes are ...

Soul Meeting CD music
$14.49 One of the greatest saxophone players in the history of rock & roll, King Curtis truly lived up to his name, and this excellent double-disc reissue is more than concrete evidence. With great confidence and ease, he takes on some of the finest moments of the Memphis soul movement and delivers the goods with his signature understated "less is more" approach to improvisation and melody. Some of the playing here is among his best of the '60s. The second half of the reissue isn't as stunning, ...

Soul Meeting songs
$6.75 A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune").
All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You Don't Love Me." The only real disappointment here is that Stills, a far better singer than Kooper, never opens his mouth.
Those familiar with the Live Adventures album these two recorded at the Fillmore West know ...

Soul Meeting CD music
$14.15 When he passed away last year, Country Music Hall of Famer Hank Thompson left a recording career that spawned seven decades and amassed over 60 million sold recordings. He captured virtually every award that the industry could present to him including the coveted spot in the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Country Music Hall of Fame as well.“Treasures-Unreleased 1950’s Recordings By Hank Thompson And The Brazos Valley Boys” brings to light a remarkable time in the career of Hank Thompson. This new album on Heart of Texas Records contains twenty songs that were recorded by Hank in his home studio in Oklahoma featuring one of the most versatile grouping of the Brazos Valley Boys.“One of Hank’s first projects after his move to Oklahoma City in 1952, was to buy a state of the art Ampex tape recorder and set up a recording studio in his home,” Thompson’s biographer Warren Kice said. “Hank and his band were able to practice and perfect the songs before the final recordings were made at the Capitol Studio. A great majority of the songs that were prerecorded at Hank’s house were ultimately recorded in the Capitol studio and released. But there were twenty songs that were recorded that didn’t see the light of day until Hank Thompson Treasures.”Thompson wrote fourteen of the songs on “Hank Thompson’s Treasures” including You’re Too Young To Cry Now” “I Know Exactly How You Feel” “Harbor Of Love” “You Can’t Put That Monkey On My Back” “Love Is Where You Find It” “I Could Love The Devil Out of You” and “Meet Me On The Corner.”He also turned to his long time writing friends Weldon and Hathcock to contribute “Whipporwill Lane” “A Fool And His Dreams” “Everybody’s Crazy” and “Maple On The Hill.” “Hank had worked on this songs in the past and even thought about releasing them,” Ann Thompson, Hank’s widow, said. “He just decided that the time was not right. After he passed away, Warren and I felt that these recordings were so great that we wanted Hank’s fans to hear them. We also wanted Heart of Texas Records and Tracy Pitcox to be the one to put out these treasures.”Thompson’s voice is at his prime. During these recordings, Thompson was the engineer, producer, guitarist and vocalist all at the same time. These twenty songs would compare to any of Thompson’s Capitol recordings from the same era. It is truly a mystery why they were not recorded for release on Capitol.The Brazos Valley Boys on these recordings include Billy Gray on Rhythm Guitar, Bobbie White and Pee Wee Whitewing on Steel Guitar, ...
