Product Details

Wilkerson spent years in the trenches of Ray Charles's band before stepping into Van Gelder's Englewood Cliffs studio, and that road experience bleeds through every track here. The chemistry with Grant Green and Sonny Clark, two of Blue Note's most in-demand voices at the time, gives the session a loose, after-hours heat that studio-assembled dates rarely capture.

The soulful Louisiana-born tenor saxophonist, Don Wilkerson, made his Blue Note debut in 1962 with Preach Brother! - one of the most exuberant yet under-recognized soul jazz classics of the Blue Note catalog. The album featured the Ray Charles alum with Grant Green (guitar), Sonny Clark (piano), Butch Warren (bass), and Billy Higgins (drums). Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series is all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Optimal.
