Info zu Fire Eater (Remastered)
A must have – and one of the best jazz funk albums ever on Prestige! The first-ever audiophile-quality release of this unsung monster in the pantheon of exceptional soul-jazz outings from the Prestige catalog, Fire Eater finds Rusty Bryant grooving hard in a combo that featured Idris Muhammad on drums, Wilbert Longmire on guitar, and both Bill Mason and Leon Spencer Jr. on organ.
„Fire-Eater features just four long cuts, all between seven and ten minutes in length, on a session that has Bryant stretching out his meaty tone and improvisations a bit further than usual. This is respectable soul-jazz with a lot of funk, but no fusion, employing the tenor sax-organ-guitar-drums lineup. All of the material was written by Bryant or members of the quartet, and favors a laid-back groove that's on the slow side, except for "Mister S.," on which guitarist Wilbert Longmire has a particularly engaging solo.“ (Richie Unterberger, AMG)

Rusty Bryant
Known for his strong, soulful tone, Bryant cut his teeth on tenor saxophone in Columbus, Ohio, quickly becoming a fixture of the local jazz scene. He worked with Tiny Grimes and Stomp Gordon before founding his own ensemble, the Carolyn Club Band, in 1951. In 1952, his live recording "All Nite Long" (a faster version of "Night Train") became a hit R&B single in the U.S.; however, it wasn't until his appearance on the 1968 Groove Holmes album That Healin' Feelin'that he rose beyond regional acclaim, and soon after he began leading dates for Prestige Records. He recorded extensively for the label from 1969 through the middle of the 1970s, being a sideman with soul-jazz heavyweights Ivan "Boogaloo Joe" Jones, Johnny "Hammond" Smith, Charles Kynard, and Sonny Phillips. He achieved breakthrough commercial success in 1970 with his album, Soul Liberation, which reached No. 35 on the U.S. Black Albums chart and No. 15 on the Top Jazz Albums chart.
