Booker Ervin - Boo (Official Audio)

The official audio of Booker Ervin's "Boo" from the newly remastered album That's It!

Mostly associated with Charles Mingus - with whom he recorded 10 albums between 1958 and 1961 - Booker Ervin is one of the great saxophone players of his generation, though arguably lesser known then many of his contemporaries.

That’s It! is only Ervin’s third outing as a band leader. The sessions are no doubt influenced by Ervin’s time with Mingus’ Jazz Workshop, and indeed Mingus is quoted extensively in the album’s liner notes with singular praise for the saxophonist.

Recorded in 1961 at the Nola Penthouse in New York City, and produced by Canid A&R man and founder Nat Hentoff and released that same year.
