The releases continue in 2023 with Chicken Fat, the 1967 Impulse! debut by blues guitarist Mel Brown. Brown’s clean picking style – honed while playing alongside John Lee Hooker, Bobby Bland, and T-Bone Walker – marinates deliciously with the swinging soul-jazz organ of Gerald Wiggins. Featuring the simmering lament “I’m Goin’ to Jackson,” the electrifying “Greasy Spoon,” and the standout title track, Chicken Fat is quite possibly the funkiest and most unique album ever released on the label.
