From the Vaults of Atlantic Records (series)

Tobacco Road / Do It Now!

by Brother Jack McDuff

Description by OLDIES.com:

With his swinging Hammond B-3 sound, organist Brother Jack McDuff brought heart and soul to every tune he recorded. The two albums collected here were originally released on Atlantic in 1967. Highlights include a gospel-rooted, blues-inspired "Wade In the Water," a tasty rendition of "The Bigger Earth," and a jubilantly funky composition of his own, "Can't Get Satisfied."
