This time, 30 rare records that have not been reissued in Japan in recent years have been carefully selected and reissued in SHM-CD format. This is the debut leader album of popular organist John Patton, who left many recordings for Blue Note in the 1960s. A soulful lineup with organ trio joined by R&B tenor saxophonists Fred Jackson and Harold Vic. The album features passionate, blues-based performances, including "The Silver Meter," written by drummer Ben Dixon.
