Reception
“Tight funky organ work from Billy Larkin and his hard-swingin Delegates combo! This stuff was the west coast equivalent of New Jersey organ combos – and you can bet your bippy that Billy & Co were blasting loud out of every jukebox on Central Ave during the 60s. This album’s still got the group working in a straight soul jazz mode – and the original trio’s been expanded to include Fats Theus on tenor and Leon Flowers on trumpet (Dusty Groove).
