This is a good live recording .... still this platter always leaves me wondering why Esther Phillips - backed by a crack soul proven band - was directed by Atlantic in her 2nd stint with the company to wade in more blues oriented territory while Aretha Franklin (with "This Girl's In Love With You") was oozing S-O-U-L .... and selling tons of records ....

As good as it is, I think I prefer Confessin' The Blues.

The Milt Jackson Big 4 - At the Montreux Jazz Festival 1975 (Pablo)
I've been playing this over-and-over-again. Jackson is one of the few who can conjure that extraordinary Louis Armstrong feeling of joy through rhythm.
