Booker Ervin, Pony Poindexter & Larry Young - Gumbo! (1963)

Tenor saxophonist Booker Ervin joined alto and soprano saxophonist Pony Poindexter in 1963 on Gumbo, based around the sights and sounds of Poindexter's birthplace, the Crescent City. Poindexter penned the majority of these compositions, providing them with evocative titles of the city". Reviewing the CD reissue with bonus tracks for All About Jazz, Derek Taylor observed: "Though this disc does consist of a rather bizarre match of sessions the music is uniformly entertaining and should be investigated, particularly by listeners who harbor an appreciation for Ervin".
