These sessions were recorded for Blue Note in 1961 and 1963.
The first date features five cuts with Jack Mcduff on organ, Grant Green on guitar, and Joe Dukes on drums.
The four remaining cuts were recorded two years later with John Patton on organ, Ben Dixon on drums, and the addition of Irvin Stokes on trumpet.
This is a mainly mellow affair with six of the nine tracks exchanging the hard bop and soul-jazz of the times for ballads and slow blues.
However, the occasional up-tempo funky surprise does pop up on "My Melancholy Baby" and the Donaldson originals "Hipty Hop" and "Soul Meetin'.".
