/Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis. Personnel: Arnett Cobb, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, Strethen Davis, George Duvivier, Arthur Edgehill. Recorded in January, 1959. Personnel: Arnett Cobb (tenor saxophone); Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis (tenor saxophone); Strethen Davis, Wild Bill Davis (organ); Arthur Edgehill (drums). Liner Note Authors: Ira Gitler; Tom Curry. Recording information: Hackensack, NJ (01/09/1959). Unknown Contributor Roles: Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis ; Strethen Davis. Arnett Cobb's debut for Prestige and his first recording as a leader in three years (due to a serious car accident in 1956) is an explosive affair. Cobb is matched up with fellow tough tenor Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, and there are plenty of sparks set off by their encounter. With organist Wild Bill Davis, bassist George Duvivier, and drummer Arthur Edgehill keeping the proceedings heated, Cobb and Davis tangle on a variety of basic material, alternating uptempo romps such as "Go Power" and "Go Red Go" with slightly more sober pieces highlighted by "When I Grow Too Old to Dream." This is a great matchup (reissued on CD through the OJC imprint) that lives up to its potential. ~ Scott Yanow
