Description

Rare DON WILKERSON, "Shoutin'" Blue Note 4145 LP, with original blue note insert sleeve. Blue Note Records BLP 4145 (Mono). Blue and White, New York Label with "VAN GELDER" & Ear mark in Deadwax Trailing. EX++/NM. This LP came from a collection once owned by local Seattle area Jazz DJ and like nearly all of his LPs was rarely played! Don Wilkerson's final album, Shoutin', found him returning to the confines of a quartet, which actually liberated his playing. Without the competition provided from a trumpeter, Wilkerson has plenty of room to roam, and he needs it -- he was one of the most forceful and full-bodied tenor saxophonists in soul-jazz during the '60s. Throughout Shoutin', he impresses with his ability to switch between rich, graceful ballads and hard-hitting, hard-driving blues and R&B. Fortunately, he's supported by an excellent trio that can play it hard and play it soft with equal aplomb. And Green and Patton not only contribute fine accompaniment, but also terrific solos that keep things cooking. The original compositions provide launching pads for hot grooves and kinetic interplay. All through Preach, Brother!, the quartet works soulful grooves with invigorating dexterity, and the high quality of the music on this album, as well as Wilkerson's other three records, will make most soul-jazz fans regret that this was his last record. It will also make them treasure the albums all the more. This record is highly recommended for jazz aficionados. Another great find!

Side 1: Movin' Out, Cookin' with Clarence, Easy Living.
Side 2: Happy Johnny, Blues for J, Sweet Cake.

Credits: John Patton (Organ), Don Wilkerson (Tenor Sax), Grant Green (Guitar), Ben Dixon (Drums).
