First time on CD for a funky late '60s classic from Hammond player Jack McDuff one of his few albums done for Chess Records, and a mighty session that mixes up both nightclub and studio material. Arranger Richard Evans is on deck to help ensure the grooves are tight and the album s produced by Lew Futterman, who handled some of Jack s funkiest albums from this time. Hammond organ dominates the tunes, but there s also a strong emphasis on rhythms too some killer cuts filled with fast-riffing guitar, bumping bass, and heavy percussion. Decades before Snoop Dogg would hit the scene, Brother Jack already knew that Gin & Juice was one mighty combination!
