Fred Jackson – Hootin' N' Tootin' (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Fred Jackson never became a household name, but that obscurity is exactly what makes a reissue like this one worth your time. Recorded during Blue Note's peak soul-jazz era, *Hootin' N' Tootin'* captures a hard-blowing tenor saxophonist fully in his element, anchored by the Hammond organ of Earl Van Dyke, who would later become the musical backbone of Motown's legendary Funk Brothers.
In addition to appearing as a sideman with Blue Note organists Baby Face Willette & Big John Patton, the brawny tenor saxophonist Fred Jackson also cut his soulful leader debut for the label in 1962. Hootin' 'N Tootin' features organist Earl Van Dyke, guitarist Willie Jones and drummer Wilbert Hogan. This stereo Blue Note Tone Poet Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.
