Roland Kirk With Jack McDuff - Kirk's Work flac album

Renews automatically. The format is a quartet with soul-jazz organ player Jack McDuff. Brother Jack's presence here tells you exactly what kind of sound the album has- bop-tinged soul-jazz with little of the experimentalism that Kirk would later use. However, few are more soulful than Kirk, and even if the album isn't a conceptual advance, it is a masterpiece of straight-ahead soul jazz. Kirk has been both praised and criticized for playing multiple horns at once, but the most important thing to know about him is that when he used this trick, it didn't even sound that odd.

5. Doin' The Sixty-Eight. Roland Kirk With Jack McDuff - Funk Underneath ‎(LP, Album, RE, RM). Prestige.

Kirk's Work, Rahsaan Roland Kirk's third long-player, teams him up with organist "Brother" Jack McDuff for Kirk's most soulful post-bop set to date. His unorthodox performance style incorporates the polyphonies of a tenor sax, flute, manzello, and stritch. The latter instrument is Kirk's own modification of a second-generation B-flat soprano sa. This contributes to the unique sonic textures and overtones Kirk creates when playing two - and often three - of those lead instruments simultaneously.

Technically his third album, following Introducing Roland Kirk (Chess, 1960), and a previously unissued R&B session (Triple Threat), Kirk's Work pre-dates the boundless surrealism of his post-Rahsaan era. Sharing the bill with organist Jack McDuff, the record is commonly regarded as a fairly straight-ahead date made years before Kirk gradually transformed from a stunning virtuoso t into an iconic musical shaman  . The rhythm section contributes heavily to the session, providing more than just run of the mill backbeats for Kirk to riff over. Jack McDuff's greasy down home organ instills the session with a buoyant sensibility, celebratory and optimistic. Benjamin and Taylor are a tight, snappy rhythm section, Taylor strikes hard and deep, sounding at times like Roy Haynes. Doin' The Sixty-Eight" finds the rhythm duo deep in a pulsating polyrhythmic groove, dragging Kirk and McDuff headfirst into the infectious Latin rhythms.
