Aahh, the sweet, righteous sound of Cannonball Adderley!
A classic album recorded during the time when Capitol was making a mint off of Cannonball's funky soul jazz riffing - and one of the early efforts he did with David Axelrod at the helm! Once again, keyboardist Joe Zawinul's penned the big tracks on the album, including the 2 title hits: "Walk Tall" and "74 Miles Away". The latter is the best groove, and has a lot of room for a nice long solo workout by Cannon, Nat, and Joe! (Review courtesy of Dusty Groove)
"Walk Tall" is obviously the hit (and Cannonball would return to it on several recordings) but the real treat is of course the long title piece. Booth groovy and complex.
