Jay Arnold (ts), Brother Jack McDuff (org), Charlie Freeman (g), Sammy Greason (d), recorded in Memphis, TN, June 10, 1969.
A set of gritty electric funk and soulful blues, Down Home Style is an excellent showcase for Brother Jack McDuff's gripping, funky style. Inspired more by the tight grooves of Stax Records than bebop, Down Home Style features McDuff leading a small group through a number of R&B grooves, ranging from the stuttering "The Vibrator" and dirty funk of "Butter (For Yo Popcorn)" to the slow blues of "Memphis in June." Occasionally, the group is augmented by a punchy horn section, but the record is designed as a showcase for McDuff's wild, intoxicating Hammond organ, and he runs with it, demonstrating every one of his tricks. ~Stephen Thomas Erlewine
