Blue John (album)


Blue John is an album by American organist John Patton recorded in 1963 but not released on the Blue Note label until 1986.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Steve Huey awarded the album 4½ stars and stated "While the grooving interplay between Patton, Green, and Dixon is as instinctive as ever, Braith's piercing, honking stabs are what really liven up the proceedings, giving Blue John a crazed sense of fun that makes it one of Patton's most infectious and enjoyable records".
