Psychicemotus (Verve By Request Series)

This excellent 1965 album from the always versatile Lateef runs the gamut musically, from the Coltrane influenced “Semi-Octo” to soulful reads of standards from Hammerstein/Kern, Fats Waller, and Erik Satie, and a beautifully rendered original “Bamboo Flute Blues”. Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
