According to Dusty Groove, "a hip set that features two album side-length jammers, played in a tripped-out, stretched-out, funky soul fashion!"
Herbie may be considered a lightweight by many, but man; did he make some groovy albums for Atlantic in the late 60's/early 70's! Live At The Whisky A Go Go features one of Mann's most interesting groups from that period: youngsters like Roy Ayers, Sonny Sharrock, Miroslav Vitous and the underrated Steve Marcus as well as reliable session drummer Bruno Carr.
Herbie Mann will always be special for me, since his album At The Village Gate was the very first jazz album I ever bought!

Thankyou nunne, really enjoying your posts. I'm quite excited about this Herbie album.
word, thanks
Great blog, man.
Hey, any chance you can re-up these Herbie tracks in a more regular format cos I can't play them :(
Yeah, the aiff files don't play on PCs, even with plug-ins for WinAmp.

can someone please post the village gate?
Fantastic share. I was just listening to this on cassette two days ago! Anyone have the other two tracks of this lp to up? Rest assured the best tracks are included, but Chain of Fools is nearly as hip as the first two tracks. Thanks for the good shtuff!
