about

After a career as a sideman for greats like Marvin Gaye and Lou Donaldson, Caesar Frazier stepped into the driver’s seat in 1972 for his debut solo LP. Featuring his impeccable organ playing throughout, it’s been a staple for crate diggers and hip hop producers alike for decades. Caesar is joined by a who’s who of funky jazz musicians (Houston Person, Melvin Sparks and Idris Muhammad) to make Hail Ceasar! a masterclass in laid back grooves. Between the assured originals and instinctively chosen covers, there is no doubt this is one of the greatest examples of Soul Jazz the 70s (or any decade) produced.
