Jazz Crusaders ORIG US LP Live at the Lighthouse ’66 EX ST20098 Jazz Hard Bop Original US LP released in 1966 on Pacific Jazz Records. Cat: ST20098. Comes in heavy weight gatefold sleeve.
Because the Jazz Crusaders in the early '70s dropped the "Jazz" from their name and later in the decade veered much closer to R&B and pop music than they had earlier, it is easy to forget just how strong a jazz group they were in the 1960s. The original seven-song LP program (highlighted by "Blues Up Tight," "Doin' That Thing," and "Milestones”). The Jazz Crusaders (comprised of tenor saxophonist Wilton Felder, trombonist Wayne Henderson, pianist Joe Sample, drummer Stix Hooper, and, during this period, bassist Leroy Vinnegar) are heard in prime form. Felder shows the strong influence of Coltrane, Henderson recalls J.J. Johnson, Sample displays the most originality and the quintet on a whole (with its tenor-trombone frontline) sounds quite distinctive. An excellent set of primarily straight-ahead (but soulful) jazz.
