Although he did not become a solo artist-turned-bandleader as Sam Taylor and King Curtis did, he remained at the forefront of music for more than 60 years and has made a significant contribution to the vitality of the music world.The reissue of "Groove Merchant" (1967) from his valuable leader collection is nothing short of an accomplishment.
