For this Milestone LP (not yet reissued on CD), James Moody leaves his alto at home and mostly sticks to tenor (although he switches to flute on "Cherokee"). Five of the nine selections feature Moody with a five-piece brass section (three trumpets, one trombone and a tuba) and a top-notch rhythm section consisting of pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Bob Cranshaw and drummer Mel Lewis. Tom McIntosh's arrangements are functional but unexciting, with only "Au Privave" catching much fire. Best are the four other numbers which showcase the tenorman with only the rhythm section. Not content to be a mere bebop revivalist, Moody is heard throughout pushing himself, and there are some good moments from Barron too. ~ Scott Yanow
Personnel: James Moody (flute, tenor saxophone); Jimmy Owens, Joe Newman (trumpet, flugelhorn); Snooky Young (trumpet); Jimmy Cleveland (trombone); Don Butterfield (tuba); Kenny Barron (piano); Bob Cranshaw (double bass).

MICHAEL BUFFALO SMITH RELEASES "SOMETHING HEAVY"Alabama All Star Cast Joins Smith On RecordGREENVILLE, SC - The latest album from Upstate South Carolina's Michael Buffalo Smith, Something Heavy, will be released on June 24, the artist's birthday. It is Smith's fifth album in a twelve-year period. The CD will be released on Mill Kids Records, an indie label in Huntsville, Alabama. Smith is again backed by the excellent band The Crawlers, who are also based in HuntsvilleAlso along for the ride are founding Marshall Tucker Band member turned Nashville singer/songwriter George McCorkle; Muscle Shoals guitar legend Pete Carr (his signature leads can be heard on "Main Street" by Bob Seger and "Tonight's The Night" by Rod Stewart, just to name a couple); JoJo Billingsley, one of the original Lynyrd Skynyrd backup ensemble The Honkettes who sang with the late Ronnie Van Zant; John D. Wyker, leader of the early '70's charting band Sailcat; multi-instrumentalist Danny Hall, singer Rodeo Jan and keyboard guru Larry Perkins.Something Heavy begins with a rocking tune written by Wyker called "Hard Drivin' Man," an ode to truckers, bikers and musicians that features the slippery slide guitar of Ray Brand. Next is the title track, "Something Heavy," penned by the late Eddie Hinton, a swampy blues with some Danny Hall acoustic that will get your mojo a workin. ' There is a country-rock rendition of the Meat Loaf hit "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad," and another Smith original, "Redneckin," quite possibly the new theme song of blue collar Southerners everywhere. The album is rich with variety, all tied together by the powerful voice of a Southern man with a whole lot of soul. Michael Buffalo Smith is Publisher/Editor of GRITZ Magazine, as well as a frequent contributor to other magazines such as Goldmine, Mojo and Relixe. He is the author of several books including Carolina Dreams: The Musical Legacy of Upstate South Carolina, and The Ultimate Southern Rock Book. Smith has performed with everyone from The Marshall Tucker Band to Southern Rock Allstars, Molly Hatchet, The Charlie Daniels Band, Bonnie Bramlett, Jerry LaCroix and many more. Smith has two previous albums on cdBaby, as well as two out of print ...
