Harrison, Wendell
The Carnivorous Lady
Wendell Harrison released his opus 'The Carnivorous Lady' in 1988. The album featured an all-star line-up that including Marcus Belgrave (Ray Charles, Houston Person, Charlie Mingus) on guitar, Duke Billingslea (Martha Reeves) & Pamela Wise (Tribe) on keyboards, Larry Fratangelo (Fred Wesley, Dennis Coffey) on percussion and Shirley Hayden (Parliament/Funkadelic) on vocals. The record shows Wendell's trademark proficiency on saxophone, flute and clarinet. Although it has a 80's smoother fusion sound, infectious boogie synths, R&B vocals and jazz-funk percussion - this album remains a very spiritual and soulful hard bop jazz record. Tidal Waves Music presents the first ever vinyl reissue of `The Carnivorous Lady' since its release in 1988. This official reissue is now available as a deluxe 180 gram vinyl edition and comes with the original artwork.
