Some older jazzmen like to feature a lot of young unknowns -- they figure that because someone gave them a break when they were young, they should do the same thing now that they're well established. While that is admirable, there is also something to be said for surrounding yourself with people who have proven track records in your field. Jimmy McGriff's field is soul-jazz/hard bop, and most of the people he employs on Feelin' It have strong credentials in that area -- including guitarist Melvin Sparks and saxmen David "Fathead" Newman, Ronnie Cuber, and Bill Easley. The producer, Bob Porter, has worked with countless soul-jazz artists, while Rudy Van Gelder is bop's most famous engineer of all time. One greets Feelin' It with high expectations, and McGriff doesn't let the listener down. Nothing groundbreaking occurs, but the organist and his sidemen bring a lot of enthusiasm to material that includes Miles Davis' "All Blues," Stanley Turrentine's "Stan's Shuffle," and Paul Mitchell's "Hard Times" (which Newman defined back in 1958). Equally rewarding is McGriff's interpretation of the standard "Just in Time," which gets a laid-back bossa nova makeover. "Just in Time" is the album's most surprising track but, on the whole, the word "surprising" doesn't describe Feelin' It. McGriff was 64 when this CD was recorded in 2000 and, at that age, he wasn't trying to reinvent the wheel. But his fans expected him to provide soul-jazz/hard bop that was solid and consistent; Feelin' It definitely fits that description. ~ Alex Henderson

One of the great myths of jazz history is that by the final decade of his life, Lester Young was a burnout case, too drunk to stand up and play his horn, much less attain the creative flights of fancy that marked his groundbreaking work with Count Basie in the late '30s. But when these live recordings of Young playing with the Bill Potts Trio in Washington, D.C., were first released on LP in 1980, the jazz world had to re-evaluate its thinking. These privately recorded tapes revealed that not only was Prez far from being a broken shadow of his former self, he was blowing his heart out, obviously inspired by the playing of the trio behind him and the relaxed setting of the date itself. Kicking off with an uptempo take on "A Foggy Day," Young shows he's in full command of his chops, and the trio backs him buoyantly. Of the seven selections on this disc, Young contributes two blues of his own derivation, along with great readings of "When You're Smiling" and "Tea for Two," as well as a version of "I Can't Get Started with You" that rivals the live version cut as a member of the Jazz at the Philharmonic troupe in 1946. Those who dismiss his later work as uninspired will find this disc a revelation and a wonderful addition to his legacy. ~ Cub Koda

To most folks, the phrase Detroit rock & roll either means the high-energy overdrive of MC5, the Stooges, and the Amboy Dukes, or the no-nonsense working-class rock of Bob Seger and Mitch Ryder. But before those acts established themselves in the public eye, the Motor City already had a thriving garage rock scene in the early to mid-'60s, and one of the real movers and shakers in pre-psychedelic Detroit rock was Dave Leone, who ran The Hideout, Detroit's leading teen dance club, and later branched out with his own record label, Hideout Records. Friday at the Hideout collects 21 highlights (18 on LP) from the Hideout catalog, and while legal problems prevented the inclusion of any of the six sides a young Bob Seger cut for Leone (among ...
