Curtis Fuller - South American Cookin '1961/2014

Tracks list

Reissue with latest remastering. Comes with liner notes. Not Curtis Fuller in
South America, but a record that picks up a very slight Latin vibe in the rhythm
– which makes for a nice change from Fullers sessions for Blue Note! The
date was recorded during that great short run of soul jazz cookers on early 60s
Epic Records – and is a perfect talent for the well-voiced solo talents
of Fuller – which really take great fire in a group that also includes
Zoot Sims on tenor, Tommy Flanagan on piano, and Dave Bailey on drums. The
records got some of the gutbuckety energy of Baileys classic sets for Epic at
the same time – a strong recommendation from us – and titles
include One Note Samba, Besame Mucho, and Wee Dot.

Tracks:

01 - Hello Young Lovers
02 - Besame Mucho
03 - Willow Weep For Me
04 - One Note Samba
05 - Wee Dot
06 - Autumn Leaves

Personnel:

Curtis Fuller - trombone
Zoot Sims - tenor saxophone
