Midnight Sun (Japanese pressing – with bonus track)
CD (Item 615662) Blue Note (Japan), 1960/1980 — Condition: New Copy
A killer from Lou Donaldson's early hardbop years at Blue Note – recorded right during his classic run of albums for the label, but not issued until many years later! There's a sweet bounce to most tracks here – the kind of vibe that Lou had most famously on his Blues Walk album – thanks to the presence of Ray Barretto on congas, in the company of Horace Parlan on piano, Ben Tucker on bass, and Al Harewood on drums! Parlan's piano gives the whole thing a great soulful bottom – and titles include "Midnight Sun", "Dog Walk", "The Squirrel", "Si Si Safronia", and "Candy". CD features a bonus alternate of "Candy". (Packaged here with the original 70s cover art too!) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | ||||||
