Roosevelt Sykes Feel Like Blowing My Horn(blues)(mp3@320)[rogercc][h33t]

ROOSEVELT SYKES FEEL LIKE BLOWING MY HORN Label Delmark Orig Year 1973 Format:Mp3@320 This loveable pianist and singer sustained a long recording and performing career, the last decades of which he was frequently heard as a soloist. Although this was an artistically defendable position and Sykes made the most of the solo context, he was quick to admit in interviews that he was most known as a bandleader in his romping, stomping days, and these were bands that featured horns and arrangements of a style somewhere between Kansas City and New Orleans. Producer Bob Koester gets kudos for bringing about a studio session for Sykes involving such a group later in his career. What a great combination of players is involved, including the brilliant guitarist Robert Jr. Lockwood, the crack rhythm section of Dave Myers and Fred Below, and two horn players whose affiliation with the bandleader goes back to the '30s and '40s. One of them, trumpeter King Kolax, is a name who frequently shows up in discographies of jazz great John Coltrane, who played in the Kolax band when he was a whippersnapper. These legendary players hardly sit on their laurels; they use the opportunity to lay down really beautiful music, the rocking and fun-loving spirit of Sykes looking down on all of it like some kind of barbecue munching holy spirit. One of the best recordings on the Delmark label, and that is saying a mouthful. ~ Tracklist 1.Feel Like Blowing My Horn 2.My Hamstring's Poppin' 3.I'm a Nut 4.Blues Will Prank With Your Soul 5.Jubilee Time - (previously unreleased, alternate take) 6.All Days Are Good Days - (previously unreleased, alternate take) 7.Sykes' Gumboogie 8.Rock-A-Bye Birdie 9.Moving Blues 10.Don't Bat Your Eye - (previously unreleased) 11.All Days Are Good Days 12.Eagle Rock Me, Baby 13.Jubilee Time 14.Love the One You're With - (previously unreleased) [ Recorded from August 10-11, 1970.
