Album Review
Alto saxophonist Lou Donaldson selected these 13 tracks as his personal favorites that he recorded for Blue Note between 1952 and 1968. During those 16 years, Donaldson embraced bebop, hard bop, and soul-jazz, thanks in part to the cavalcade of legendary musicians who passed through his band, including Horace Silver, Clifford Brown, Art Blakey, George Benson, and Grant Green. The collection boasts such solid Donaldson-penned tracks as "Cookin'," "The Blues Walk," "Funky Mama," and "Alligator Boogaloo," which became a hit in 1967. While collectors will have little use for this set, it's perfect for the curious listener. ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide
