| Some JAZZ 45s |
|
|
|
Below are some of my favorite Jazz 45s. Swinging, soulful, funky or just plain "jazzy." These sides probably didn't find there where into many jukeboxes but I would have loved to be in the bar that they did call home.
This list is a work in progress and will be extended very very soon. Thanks. Updated on March 30th, 2003. |

Jay Berliner - "Stickball" (Wade Marcus) 4:30

|
|
|
Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis - "Dobbin' With Redd Foxx"
(Prestige cat. 45-171 A) Not really sure what this has to do with Redd Foxx. Maybe he and Lockjaw were buddies. This is another late night groover with sax soloing over a swirling organ and conga laced backing. The song moves through a true 50's style chu'ch organ solo that can whip any audience into a great mood before going out on a restatement of the theme over a more driving conga. More jazz for the jukebox. Damn I love this stuff. |

|
Bill Doggett - "Honkey Tonk Popcorn" (James Brown) 2:55
(James Brown Production) KING 45-6239 |
|
|
|
Red Holloway - "Monkey Sho' Can Talk"
(Prestige cat. PR 45-287 A) Sometimes things are not what they seem. Mr Holloway has a knack for doing that. His "Gettin' It" track on his own label is one of the funkiest 45s I own. "Monkey Sho' Can Talk" is one of the best Garage Instrumentals I own. Oh, by-the-way Mr Holloway is a Jazz musician. A very well respected one at that. |

Specks Williams - "We Gave The Drummer Some"
(Jax cat. A - 117) Jazzy little tune with guitar more the feature than the drums is intro'd in the most polite announcement that "We gave the drummer some." After hours with just one person on the dance floor (if you can call it that); more like the space between the stage and the pool table. The shades pulled and the lights are low and all the pickled patrons are doing their best to draw one more from the barkeep. |
