 Les Mccann & Eddie Harris - Swiss Movement

Atlantic records 1969       – SD 1537

credits& notes

This memorable impromptu session arose at the 1969 Montreux festival
when tenor saxophonist Eddie Harris and trumpeter Benny Bailey joined
Les McCann's working trio. McCann's regular rhythm section of Leroy Vinnegar
on bass and Donald Dean on drums provides rock-solid support for some
strongly felt and entertaining music. Harris's light-toned but expressive
horn shines on his own "Cold Duck Time" and McCann's "Kathleen's Theme,
" while the whole band rocks on "You Got It in Your Soulness.
" McCann's elemental voice and piano gives new life to the soul classic
 "Compared to What," while the underrated Bailey, more frequently
heard in mainstream jazz settings, brings a brassy soulfulness
of his own to the proceedings. 

Les McCann, piano
Eddie Harris, electric tenor saxophone
Benny Bailey, trumpet
Leroy Vinnegar, double bass
Donald Dean, drums
