Often overlooked by hardcore jazzers -- who tend to disdain regular *bands* (like the MJQ) and *song*-form instrumental material -- is Wayne Henderson's outstanding work with the Jazz Crusaders (acoustic 60's) and later the jes' plain Crusaders (electric 70's).
And then you can never ever go wrong with JB/Horny Horns 'bone man Fred Wesley. Is it jazz? Better question: Who cares when you can't sit down?
