Unjustly ignored at the time of its release, Fred Jackson's lone
album, Hootin' 'N Tootin', is a thoroughly enjoyable set of funky
soul-jazz with hard bop overtones. It is true that Jackson doesn't
try anything new on the set, but he proves to be a capable leader,
coaxing hot, infectious performances out of guitarist Willie Jones,
organist Earl Vandyke and drummer Wilbert Hogan, all of whom were
collegues of Jackson in the Lloyd Price band. All of the songs on the
album are Jackson originals, and while there are no substantial,
memorable melodies, they provide an excellent foundation for the
group's smoking interplay. Both the uptempo R&B numbers and the
slower blues give the musicians plenty of opportunity to flaunt their
chops while working the groove, and the result is a modest but highly
entertaining set of earthy, bluesy soul-jazz that should have been
heard by a wider audience. Blue Note's 1998 CD reissue adds all of
the material from the second and final session Jackson led. All seven
tracks from that session are in the same soul-jazz vein and feature
the same group, augmented by bassist Sam Jones. Their presence on the
reissued Hootin' 'N Tootin' makes an already fine album even better.

We are looking for quality sites in Europe and US, to be afilliated
on. Remember, we are not in it for the creds, but for the spreading
of quality music - we just want to get our releases out to the ppl
that wants/needs it. More pre sites fills this purpose.
