Cannonball Adderley – Mercy, Mercy, Mercy "Live at The Club" (1966)

with 8 comments

Cannonball Adderley - Mercy, Mercy, Mercy Recorded in 1966, produced by David Axelrod. Maybe Cannonball’s most popular LP. Though the title says “Live at The Club” and the liner notes even say it is recorded at the Club DeLisa in Chicago, in reality the show took place at Capitol’s Hollywood studio with an invited audience (and a bar). Cannonball did this for publicity as a favor for the owner of The Club, a friend of his. A more detailed explanation can be found here. Included in the zip file is the original liner notes. Cannonball always adds great chatter between songs.

1. Fun (Nat Adderley) – 8:26
2. Games (N. Adderley) – 7:19
3. Mercy, Mercy, Mercy (Joe Zawinul) – 5:10
4. Sticks (Cannonball Adderley) – 3:54
5. Hippodelphia (Zawinul) – 5:49
6. Sack O’ Woe (C. Adderley) – 10:29

Cannonball Adderley – alto saxophone, leader
Nat Adderley – cornet
Joe Zawinul – piano, Wurlitzer electric piano
Victor Gaskin – bass
Roy McCurdy – drums
