Who originally wrote this song? In the CD notes it says P. Hampton...but I can't figure out who that is.....help?!

[mccordo]

@cysublime The song is originally by a cat name Lou Donaldson. He's an old school jazz sax player.

@mccordo Look in the notes from the CD, its lists the writer as P. Hampton. I have the Lou CD as well (Everything I Play) and even there it lists P. Hampton as a co-writer....so I wonder if Lou and this P. dude wrote it together??

[mccordo]

@cysublime Hmmmm...I never got that far into it. I knew Lou played it, but I never went beyond that. I'll post something here if I find out.

That P. Hampton is actually Slide Hampton's niece...Paula Hampton. A drummer with

a female group out of New York called...Jazzberry Jam!

Holy crap. That's the definition of chops right there. Not trying hard at all and absolutely killing it.
