Rare Track On Black & Blue label Green Onions (D.Jones - S.Crooper ) From 1966-77, organist Milt Buckner recorded often for European labels. This particular set (originally cut for the Black & Blue label) was one of the very few to be made available domestically. It came out on Inner City's Classic Jazz subsidiary, and it is a bit of an oddity. Buckner, through overdubbing, performs on organ, piano and vibes (which he rarely played), and even takes an eccentric vocal on "Green Onions." To confuse matters, pianist Andre Persiany is also heard on some numbers, along with blues guitarist Roy Gaines, bassist Roland Lobligeois and drummer Panama Francis. The music itself is much less complicated, swing standards plus Buckner's "Pour Toutes Mes Soeurs" and "Milt's Boogie." Fun good-time music that will be difficult to find. Milt Buckner - Organ, Piano, Vocals, Vibraphone Roy Gaines - Guitar Panama Francis - Drums Roland Lobligeois - Bass Andre Persiany -- Piano ----------------------------------- One of the fathers of the funky organ sound and one of the inspirations for George Shearing's "locked hands" style of playing. Buckner played with McKinney's Cotton Pickers in the 1930s, then spent most of the 1940s with Lionel Hampton's big band. He struck out on his own, leading an unsuccessful big band that folded in 1949. He rejoined Hamp briefly, then left again to lead a trio. He recorded several classic albums for Capitol in the mid-1950s. Buckner pioneered the use of the electric organ as a substitute for a brass section, which proved an effective economy measure as the big band era ended. He began touring in Europe in the early 1960s, and gradually shifted most of his appearances there. In the early 1970s, he teamed with another Hampton alumnus, tenor sax man Illinois Jacquet, and they recorded a number of albums for European labels.

From chasingbuckner.com. Chasing Buckner attempts to absolve baseball great Bill Buckner of sole responsibility for the Boston Red Sox loss to the NY Mets in the 1986 World Series. The filmmaker draws on his own brushes with glory during his Little League career and subsequent futility at baseball to defend Buckner's name and prove that baseball isn't nearly as important as it seems.
