A.K. Salim(Ahmad Khatab Atkinson) was an ex-reed man who retired from playing in 1943 toarrange and compose for several jazz and Afro- Cuban bands. This 2-CD set drawstogether all the recordings he did as a leader for Savoy Records in 1957-1958.Most of his work here reflects Salims deep knowledge of blues and his arrangerstalent for setting down relatively simple lines combining down hometraditionalism with harmonic sophistication. His unpretentious arrangementshave an unmistakably visceral quality and offer a fine framework for theeloquently powerful soloists of both reed and brass sections. Some of thegreatest modern jazz pianists, bassists and drummers round out the rhythm,along with guitar in a few tracks, in both support and solo capacities, whilethe presence of a conga blends well with the Latino-flavored charts in what is,overall, a satisfying and thoroughly swinging collection.
