Album Notes & Community Reviews
Following the massive commercial success of 'Alligator Bogaloo', the alto saxophonist reunited with organist Lonnie Smith and guitarist George Benson[cite: 1]. 'Midnight Creeper' relies on thick, infectious funk vamps and upbeat boogaloo rhythms[cite: 1]. The record perfectly exemplifies the immensely popular, blues-drenched soul jazz formula that kept Blue Note financially buoyant throughout the decade[cite: 1].
