Gumbo

Booker Ervin, Pony Poindexter, Larry Young – Gumbo! / Prestige Audio CD 1999 / PRCD-24229-2 UPC 025218522922 /// Gumbo! is an album by saxophonists Pony Poindexter and Booker Ervin which was released on the Prestige label in 1963. The 1999 CD reissue added eight unreleased selections from earlier sessions, three led by Poindexter and five by Ervin. // Al Campbell of Allmusic stated: "Tenor saxophonist Booker Ervin joined alto and soprano saxophonist Pony Poindexter in 1963 on Gumbo, based around the sights and sounds of Poindexter's birthplace, the Crescent City. Poindexter penned the majority of these compositions, providing them with evocative titles of the city". Reviewing the CD reissue with bonus tracks for All About Jazz, Derek Taylor observed: "Though this disc does consist of a rather bizarre match of sessions the music is uniformly entertaining and should be investigated, particularly by listeners who harbor an appreciation for Ervin". // Label: Prestige – PRCD-24229-2 Format: CD, Album Country: US Released: 1999 Genre: Jazz Style: Post Bop // Tracklist: 1 Front Of Town 2 Happy Strut 3 Creole Girl 4 4-11-44 5 Back O' Town 6 Muddy Dust 7 French Market 8 Gumbo Filet 9 Moody's Mood For Love 10 Blue And Sentimental 11 Wade In The Water 12 Absotively Posalutely 13 You Don't Know What Love Is 14 You Don't Know What Love Is (Alternate) 15 Autumn Leaves 16 Old Folks /// Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone – Pony Poindexter (tracks: 1 to 11) Bass – George Tucker (tracks: 1 to 11) Drums – Jerry Thomas (3) (tracks: 12 to 16), Jimmie Smith (tracks: 1 to 11) Organ – Larry Young (tracks: 12 to 16) Photography By – Don Schlitten, Lee Tanner Piano – Gildo Mahones (tracks: 1 to 11) Remastered By – Joe Tarantino Supervised By – Ozzie Cadena Tenor Saxophone – Booker Ervin (tracks: 1 to 8, 12 to 16) Trombone – Al Grey (tracks: 1, 2, 5, 6)
