Excellent and underrated imho
It must have been awesome to pursue a musical career in such a connected way as Nat and Cannonball Adderley demonstrate here. Fantastic playing!
Haven’t listened to this yet. On my list. Is it any good?
That was my first listen and it was a very enjoyable blues album, I will certainly be playing it again.

My wife didn’t endear herself to the sisters after a gig one night. I was too shy, but Hilary walked up to get my CD signed. One signature secured she then asked Rachel do you think “the other one” will sign it too? Frosty look in response. Best make sure your stage can take some vigorous clog dancing.
I don’t think I’d have been impressed either!
Nice article from Lloyd Bradley in The Guardian and new single from Jimmy Cliff
(Lloyds description of Rastafari is a bit wide of the mark though)
