Album: Alligator Bogaloo by Lou Donaldson (1967)
Genre: Jazz
Record Label: Blue Note Records
Format: Album

Description: Packed to the gills with sinuous, funky grooves, <i>Alligator Bogaloo</i> is one of saxman Lou Donaldson's most powerful albums. Guitarist George Benson and organist Lonnie Smith complement Donaldson's sharpshooting solos with spare, spicy runs and contribute their own sultry solos when the moment demands. On the hard-swinging "Rev. Moses" and the slow-burning "Aw Shucks", Donaldson's salty lines wrap around infectious hard bop and soul jazz, but the band still finds time to push things further out with the modal modernism of "One Cylinder".

Music Scene: Part of the American music scene. Associated with Jazz movement.
