Brother Jack McDuff • The Natural Thing

Review by Al Campbell

Hammond B-3 groovemeister "Brother" Jack McDuff carried on with his timeless patented boogaloo jazz on The Natural Thing from 1968, but is unfortunately drowned out by the overpowering punchy crunching horn charts of arranger Richard Evans. For that reason, this isn't one of McDuff's strongest dates, but it does contain enjoyable moments sans horns (especially "Funky Guru" guaranteed to please collectors of soulful funky organ. Originally recorded in Chicago for the Cadet label, this session is currently available only as a Japanese MCA import.

Reseña por Al Campbell

Hammond B-3 groovemeister El "Hermano" Jack McDuff continuó con su boogaloo jazz patentado y atemporal en The Natural Thing desde 1968, pero desafortunadamente está ahogado por los abrumadores gráficos de bocina crujidos del arreglista Richard Evans. Por esa razón, esta no es una de las citas más fuertes de McDuff, pero contiene momentos agradables sin cuernos (especialmente "Funky Guru" que garantiza complacer a los coleccionistas de órgano funky. Originalmente grabada en Chicago para el sello Cadet, esta sesión es actualmente disponible solo como una importación de MCA japonés.
