Best known for his soul-jazz and breakbeat-friendly grooves of the late '60s and early '70s, alto saxophonist Lou Donaldson first established himself as a strong bop player in the Charlie Parker mold. His sweet and slightly tart tone was freshly essayed on several fine combo outings from the '50s, most of which at least gave a nod to the R&B-based material to follow. And while its sequel takes care of those groove cuts from the Age of Aquarius, this first volume of Donaldson's best keeps it swingin' with several top Blue Note sides from 1957-1967. A stellar taste of the future funk gravy aside ("Alligator Boogaloo"), the nine tracks here embrace Donaldson's early bop 'n' blues mantra via a mix resplendent with roots ("Groovin' High"), easy strollin' swing ("The Blues Walk"), a Bird-meets-the-B-3 moment ("Sow Belly Blues"), and a rare big-band ballad ("Sweet Slumber"). Just a few organs to be found here, but there's still plenty of Donaldson's unerring after-hours touch; and let's not forget a guest list that brims over with the likes of organist Big John Patton, guitarists Grant Green and George Benson, trumpeter Blue Mitchell, conga player Ray Barretto, tenor saxophonist Wayne Shorter, and pianist McCoy Tyner.Tracklist:

03. Blues Walk
04. Light-Foot
05. Mack The Knife
