{"product_id":"lou-donaldson-hot-dog","title":"Lou Donaldson – Hot Dog","description":"\u003cp\u003eA wildly erratic slice of funky soul-jazz in keeping with Lou Donaldson's late-'60s commercial accessibility, Hot Dog isn't a total washout, but it's just as hit-and-miss as many of Donaldson's albums from the era (even if you are a fan of the style). Also featuring guitarist Melvin Sparks, organist Charles Earland, and trumpeter Ed Williams, the ensemble really catches fire on \"Turtle Walk,\" a Donaldson original where the groove sounds natural and helps push the soloists. The Donaldson-penned title cut also gets pretty funky, though the underlying vamp is a little insubstantial to stretch out over ten minutes. The Tommy Turrentine ballad \"Bonnie\" returns Donaldson to the sweet, romantic territory he's mined so well over the years. - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.roughtrade.com\/gb\/lou-donaldson\/hot-dog\"\u003eRough Trade\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"380\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/4aULzS9CvDJnoX7gz5hCTv?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable height=\"122\" style=\"width: 564px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLabel:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue Note – BLP 4318\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Gatefold, Scorpio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGenre:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJazz, Funk \/ Soul\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStyle:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoul-Jazz, Jazz-Funk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Blue Note","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41611167432862,"sku":"170566","price":39.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/products\/600x600bf-60.jpg?v=1650528829","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/lou-donaldson-hot-dog","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
