Playlist Nylon Social Club summer '09
Kindered Swedish soul is asking for playlists Klub Nylon, Oslo summer
2009 Oh, well...
Originally some millenniar modernist/funktionalist den, place was slowly taken over by rockers in what turned out to be its very last year.
Entering F&S, there were hardly any space for grits. But then, Oslo'er modernist milieu arguably always had its segreationalist leanings...

-Mel Brown: "Son of a preacher man" US Impulse -68
Brown (1939-2009) was Bobby Bland's guitarists in the 70s, while his jaz outings on Bob Thiele's Flying Dutchman/Impulse may turn out the more important?

Tenorist Ammons (1925-1974) is often cited as founder of soul-jaz genre,mixing sax and B3.
-Eddie Harris: " 'Listen here' goes funky" US Atl.(blue)Jazz Series -73
Harris (1934-1996) was Chicago born,albeit of Cuban and NOLa heritage- which probably explains his Latino musical leanings. This version of 67 'Listen here' is straightned out and uptempo'ed, highlighting Eddie's Varitone electrical tenor sax.

-Willis Jackson: "Soul Grabber" US Prestige -68
Florida born tenorist Jackson (1932-1987) teamed with Jack McDuff, same way as did Ammons&McGriff.Thus establishing soul-jaz genre between them in mid 60s.
-Charlie Earland: "The mighty burner" US Prestige -67
-Charlie Earland: "Sing a simple song" US Prestige -68
