1974 Japanese re-issue on Milestone's "Riverside Original Recording Series" of the 1959 album. With insert and obi.

condition (record/cover): NM / EX

Insert and obi included.

The Jazz Workshop, October 1959: the record that invented the live soul-jazz album and made Cannonball Adderley a genuine popular star without one inch of artistic compromise - a combination the music has been chasing ever since. Bobby Timmons' "This Here" ignites the room, and you can literally hear the audience discover it in real time, the call-and-response between band and crowd becoming part of the composition; brother Nat Adderley's cornet keeps the church in session all night long. Cannonball's spoken introductions - warm, funny, welcoming everybody in - became a template for a whole era of live jazz records, and nobody ever did them better, because nobody else meant them so completely. Joy as an artistic position, executed at the highest level of craft, with the swing non-negotiable underneath.

Japanese Milestone pressing of a record that has never stopped working a room since 1959, and never will.
