Saxophonist Alvin 'Red' Tyler is known to R&B historians as a member of the legendary New Orleans rhythm section that played on hit records by Little Richard and countless others. It was a surprise to the jazz world, then, to hear another side of Red on this album of exquisite modern jazz compositions (almost all written by Red for this recording), supported by a band of many of the best players in New Orleans. Johnny Adams' vocal on 'I'll Only Miss Her When I Think of Her' is a perennial radio favorite.

  2. Do not sleep on this one guys. Red Tyler did 2 lps for Rounder, of which this is one. Just a wonderful recording with excellent sound. Guest vocals by Johnny Adams and Germaine Bazzle. Many thanks, Giullia!
