Walter Bishop Jr.: Bish at the Bank: Live in Baltimore
by Troy Dostert
Although he played with many of the icons of bebop's formative years from Bird to Miles, as well as those who were starting to reach for something beyond, including Ken McIntyre and Jackie McLean, pianist Walter Bishop Jr. never got his due as a leader, remaining woefully under-recorded until the 1970s.

There certainly was plenty of work at urban bars in African-American ...
Big John Patton: Along Came John - 1963
by Marc Davis
If you like Booker T and MG's, you'll love Big John Patton's Along Came John. It is, without a doubt, the funkiest, bluesiest, most soulful organ jazz record of all time, bar none.
