Title:
Yusef Lateef's Detroit: Latitude 42º30'-Longitude 83º
Label:
ATLANTIC
Format:
LP
Price:
$12.00
Catalog #:
SD 1525LP
Originally released in 1969. Exact repro, manufactured by Rhino. "The string section, as heard on the opener 'Bishop School,' is far from the pastoral or classically seeking group of recordings past, but another rhythmic and melodic construct that delves deep into the beat and the almighty riff that this recording is so full of. For all of the soul-jazz pouring forth from the Blue Note and Prestige labels at the time, this album stood apart for its Eastern-tinged melodies on 'Eastern Market'; the 'Black Bottom,' gutbucket, moaning bluesiness on 'Russell and Elliot,' with Gale and Lateef on tenor trading fours in a slowhanded, low-end groove; and the solid, Motown-glazed, rocking Latin soul of 'Belle Isle.'" -- All Music Guide

The Doctor Is In... And Out
Label:
ATLANTIC
Format:
LP
Price:
$11.50
Catalog #:
SD 1685LP
Exact repro reissue manufactured by Rhino, originally released in 1976. "There's the deep minor-key meditation on blues and evolving thematic variations on 'Hellbound' that becomes a Latin funk tune; the airy, contemplative, and skeletal 'Mystique,' which may use a repeating rhythmic phrase but explores every inch of its margins via a string section and Lateef's flute solo; the smooth, urban, bluesy funk of 'Mississippi Mud'; the completely out electronic musique concrete of 'Technological Homosapien' that becomes a series of synth squeals and an erratically tumbling bassline; and the wonderfully warped mariachi variation (sung in white-boy English) that featured the band playing bluesy hard bop over an age-old recorded track on 'In a Little Spanish Town.' It's a weird way to end a record, but then, it's a weird and wonderful record." -- All Music Guide
