John Patton - That Certain Feeling '1968 [2014]

Tracks list

Features the high-fidelity SHM-CD format (compatible with standard CD player)
and the latest 24bit 192kHz remastering. A brilliantly bubbling session from
Hammond genius John Patton – and a set that serves as a real link between
the gutbucket soul of his early years, and some of the fresher phrasing he was
beginning to explore at Blue Note! Pattons lines on the keys are a wonderful
thing to behold (and behear!) – as theyre both rhythmic, but extremely
fluid and exploratory – more conceived around some of the new ideas on
tenor at the time, and pushing forward roughly into the same territory as Larry
Young – but with more of Pattons rootsy soul still intact.

Junior Cook is in the group on most tracks on tenor – sounding quite
fresh himself in this context as he leaps around with new energy – and
the rest of the group features Jimmy Ponder on guitar and Clifford Jarvis on
drums. The cuts are all originals, further proof of Pattons genius through his
writing – and titles include String Bean, I Want To Go Home, Dirty
Fingers, and Daddy James.
