MARVIN PETERSON & THE SOULMASTERS - In Concert (Reissue LP) (Ltd No. Copy 0097/1500)
UK / JAZZMAN RECORDS / 2010
IN NEAR MINT CONDITION/ PLAYED TWICE/ ORIGINAL SHRINK
Of all the Holy Grail LPs thats been reissued so far, this is quite
possibly the rarest of the rare, with a miniscule 50 copies of the
original album having been pressed up 40 or so years ago. It’s a miracle
that any copies at all have survived since then, but we’ve jumped
through hoops to ensure that not only have we faithfully reproduced the
original, but we’ve done it with a quality that cannot be rivaled!
Marvin ‘Hannibal’ Peterson will be a familiar name to ‘70s jazz enthusiasts, but his career started with the Soulmasters in Texas back in the ‘60s. As bandleader and trumpeter, they were a popular outfit around the Texas nightclub circuit with their own brand of funky jazz, soul ballads and RnB showmanship. This album manages to squeeze in all three, including the extended funky jazz workout ‘Our Groove’, the haunting ballad ‘Five Foot Even’ and finishing off with a cracking version of James Brown’s ‘I Can’t Stand It'.
For lovers of soul, jazz, funk and all things in between, this album is for you
