As a result, it barely hangs together as an album”.[1] In the CD era the tracks “Velvet Soul” and “In Sid’s Thing” have been combined with four other tracks from that session which appear on the Angel Eyes album to form 40 minutes of the 80 minute CD The Gene Ammons Story: Organ Combos.Track listing[edit]All compositions by Mal Waldron except as indicated       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4“Light’n Up” \u2013 4:02“In Sid’s Thing” (Gene Ammons) \u2013 5:25“Salome’s Tune” \u2013 4:16“A Stranger in Town” (Mel Torm\u00e9) \u2013 6:02“Velvet Soul” (Johnny “Hammond” Smith) \u2013 8:54“The Song Is You” (Oscar Hammerstein II, Jerome Kern) \u2013 9:45Recorded at Van Gelder Studio in Englewood Cliffs New Jersey on June 17, 1960 (tracks 2 & 5), June 13, 1961 (track 6) and September 5, 1962 (tracks 1, 3 & 4)Personnel[edit]Gene Ammons \u2013 tenor saxophoneHobart Dotson, Clark Terry \u2013 trumpet (track 6)Oliver Nelson \u2013 alto saxophone, arranger (track 6)George Barrow, Red Holloway \u2013 tenor saxophone (track 6)Frank Wess \u2013 tenor saxophone, (tracks 2 & 5)Bob Ashton \u2013 baritone saxophone (track 6)Mal Waldron (tracks 1, 3 & 4), Richard Wyands (track 6) \u2013 pianoJohnny “Hammond” Smith \u2013 organ (tracks 2 & 5)Wendell Marshall (tracks 1, 3, 4 & 6), Doug Watkins (tracks 2 & 5) \u2013 bassBill English (track 6), Art Taylor (tracks 2 & 5), Ed Thigpen (tracks 1, 3 & 4) \u2013 drumsRay Barretto \u2013 congas (track 6)References[edit]Years given are for the recording(s), not first release.Asleaderorco-leaderWithothersYears given are for the recording(s), not first release.Asleaderorco-leaderWithDukeEllingtonWithJohnnyHodgesWithQuincyJonesWithHerbieMannWithOliverNelsonWithothersMy Kinda Swing (Ernestine Anderson, 1959)Gloomy Sunday and Other Bright Moments (Bob Brookmeyer, 1961)Soul Summit Vol. 2 (Gene Ammons, 1961)Late Hour Special (Gene Ammons, 1961\u201362)Velvet Soul (Gene Ammons, 1962)One Foot in the Gutter (Dave Bailey, 1960)Gettin’ Into Somethin’ (Dave Bailey, 1960)Goodies (George Benson, 1968)Bobo’s Beat (Willie Bobo, 1968)Jam Session (Clifford Brown, 1954)Ruth Brown ’65 (Ruth Brown, 1964)Who Is Gary Burton?
