Bar Wars.

I personally have a soft spot for "Lockin' Horns" live at laren. With Von Freeman.

"Gator Tail" is swell as well.

"Please, Mr. Jackson" Prestige is tuff!!

In alphabetical order

Bar wars - Muse MCD6011 (oop)

Gatorade - Prestige MPP2516 (oop)

Nothin' butt - Muse MR5294 (oop)

Single action - Muse MR5179 (oop)

Star bag - Prestige PR7571 (oop)

Thunderbird (part of "Keep on a blowin'" PR24218)

But really, the only unsatisfactory Gator Tails are: "Plays around with the hits" - Trip; "Plays with feeling" - Cotillion; and "The way we were" - Atlantic. "Gator tails" - Verve - isn't too brilliant either - Creed Taylor and Claus Ogerman were REALLY not the right producer/arranger for Gator Tail (But it's not as bad as the others.)
