This 1965 set by organist Bill Doggett's band is well-played and spirited but quite lightweight. The nine selections are mostly blues-oriented jams without any memorable melodies, stirring solos, or moments that lift the program above the routine. The rather brief results are pleasant and groovin' but rather predictable. ~ Scott Yanow http://www.allmusic.com/album/wow%21-mw0000000416

Personnel: Bill Doggett (organ); Billy Butler (guitar); Andrew Ennis (tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone); Edwin Starr (percussion).

Wow!
