Often said she was the best of them all, but had an unpredictability that marginalised her a bit. No doubt she could sing and interpret music like no other.
The great Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

A mix of blues, shock rock and r&b. Remember his single.. i put a spell on you was from 1956. he continued to 1998 making music and acting occasionally.

This is one of my favourite albums of theirs, not sure why there is just something natural about the playing and its fluidity I think.

So, I went to you tube for a listen.
That doesn’t feel like Gonsalves to me. The phrasing is not him. ( although I could be wrong, i dont think so )
Had a quick google and he is on the recording. But I’m not sure !!
Possibly Jimmy Hamilton, who is also credited. I know his clarinet playing, but not so much his tenor playing. I suspect it may be him.
Anything on the sleeve notes, Grant ?
Here is the track

Gonslaves is indeed on Tenor Sax.Quote:

A recent acquisition, being a big Wether Report fan I purchased this their second album as it was a good price. It is somewhat different from the later more popular albums, quite avant-garde in parts, with elements of a discordant feel. Still is distinctive as Weather Report.

Label: CBS – CBS 32062, CBS – 32062
Series: Nice Price –
Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue

Excellent jazzy Ray
Saw him live in Angelsey, North Wales a few years ago. Unfortunately he was feeling a bit 'under the weather', so it was not the best of performances.Quote:

Currently listening to this, which is rather good (and superbly recorded):
