Jack McDuff Big Band - Prelude [Bonus Tracks]

Though the first nine tracks of this CD duplicate Mcduff's original Prelude LP (recorded in December 1963), this expanded reissue more than doubles its length with 11 bonus tracks. All of the bonus cuts are taken from 1964-1966 sessions (originally released on five different LPs) which were either arranged and conducted by Benny Golson (who also arranged and conducted on the Prelude album), or featured the Benny Golson Quartet as players. Prelude itself was a successful match of Mcduff's small-combo organ-jazz with big band arrangements by Benny Golson. Read More
