Song Of The Day - "Jungle Strut" by Gene Ammons

He was the son of boogie woogie pianist Albert Ammons, but Gene Ammons or "Jug" as he was affectionately nicknamed was known for his full round tone on the tenor. His career featured many memorable recordings dueling with Sonny Stitt and two jail terms taking 9 years of his life. Upon release in 1969, Ammons returned ready to jam on this great track.
