Tracks list
Mr. Bojangles pairs Sonny Stitt with arranger Don Sebesky for one of the smoothest and most mainstream-facing dates of the saxophonists career. Sebeskys luminous treatments underscore the elegance of Stitts soulful alto and tenor leads–Roland Hannas graceful electric piano leads the music even closer to funk, but the overall emphasis is more on atmosphere than rhythm. The material likewise spotlights ballads and slow-burn groovers, borrowing liberally from the pop charts for tunes including Killing Me Softly with His Song and Ben–even Wars The World Is a Ghetto simmers instead of boils. Tracks: 01 - Mr. Bojangles 02 - The World Is A Ghetto 03 - Killing Me Softly With His Song 04 - Blue Monsoon 05 - Got To Be There 06 - Fifty Per Cent 07 - Ben Personnel: Sonny Stitt - tenor sax Roland Hanna - electric piano Cornell Dupree - guitar Richard Davis - electric bass Jimmy Johnson - drums plus Orchestra arranged by Don Sebesky
