Yusef Lateef At Cranbrook & Elsewhere
CD (Item 493869) Argo/El (UK), 1957/1958 — Condition: New Copy
A rare treasure from Yusef Lateef – one of his hardest to find albums, recorded right around the same time as his magical work for Savoy! The record has Lateef playing in his local Detroit area – working with Terry Pollard on piano, William Austin on bass, and Frank Gant on a host of percussion instruments. The tracks have that open, percussive, and exotic feel that we love the most in Lateef – soul jazz taken to a very righteous territory, and one of the first powerful flowerings of the Detroit underground. Includes a really long version of "Morning", plus "Let Every Soul Say Amen", "Brazil", and "Woody N You". CD also features some bonus tracks from other sessions – including "Before Dawn", "Mahaba", "Taboo", "Playful Flute", "The Beginning", and "Open Strings". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
