| | King Curtis / Jimmy Forrest / Oliver Nelson Soul Battle CD (1960)
$9.59 This CD reissue adds one selection ("Soul Street") from the same date to the original LP program and is easily recommended to fans of big-toned tenors and straightahead swinging. With fine backup work by pianist Gene Casey, bassist George Duvivier and drummer Roy Haynes, the tenors battle to a draw on a set of blues and basic material (including a fine version of "Perdido"). Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1992, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
This intriguing session matches together three powerful tenor players: Oliver Nelson, King Curtis (in a rare jazz outing) and Jimmy Forrest.
