Theme from Exodus by Ernie Gold, played by Eddie Harris from his first solo record "Exodus to Jazz." According to Wikipedia, this is the first Jazz record ever certified gold! This record was recorded in 1962 at Bill Putnam's Universal Recording, in Chicago. (Bill later formed UREI from Universal Audio.) It never ceases to amaze me how good these records sound. When I was a young mastering engineer (at Eva-tone, another company formed in Evanston, Ill) my supervisor was Jerry DeClerk; Jerry was an engineer for these sessions and remembered working on this album...
from Vee Jay LP-3016

Man, they don't make music like this no more, I remember those days in cosy club with a beautiful lady just chillin. This man had his own sound and style, and there will only be one Eddie Harris

I saw Eddie Harris at the old Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach, Ca. back in the 70's. Jazz on the Pacific Ocean. It don't get no better than that.

I don't know who the rest of the band is here, but they definitely make this tune SWING!!!! Not an easy feat, considering as how it originated as a movie theme. And tougher yet, to come upith a fresh take on a tune that, by that time was firmly associated in the minds of the public, with the dynamic piano duo of Ferrante and Teicher. Not to take anything away from their version (or their work in general) which I was first familiar with and still love to this day! But for a jazz version, this is just plain pluperfectly wonderful. Today's jazz artists could learn a lot from past masters like Eddie Harris. Most of the new jazz I hear today is even schmaltzier than Lawrence Welk, whom I consider the king of the schmaltzmongers.

My father, Bruce Swedien, recorded this album at Universal when I was 6 years old. It's a classic.

Love Eddie Harris. I REALLY like your turntable and graphics! Very calming during this turbulent time. Blessings.

@anthonywhitehead6114 9 лет назад

Yes Sir, Eddie Harris, you were the man! And you still are as far as I am concerned!

Joe Diorio takes a great solo on this tune.

@tas6010 13 лет назад

Nice turntable! It's great to hear this track in its entirety for a change. There ought to be a law against cutting great tracks like this down to less that two minutes just to get airplay just before the hourly news!!

My father, Bruce Swedien recorded this album at Universal. Jerry DeClerk may have been an assistant engineer. It was done in Studio A. Great album. - Julie Swedien

Damn, that's smooth! There would be world peace if we could just pipe this tune out all over the globe.

This is just for the quarantine, I'd play it day and night.

My neighbors had this record. It was the first jazz record I liked barely into my teens. I have loved jazz every since an became a professional musician.

yurei8 Thats a cool story, continuing the tradition,,,good stuff man.

@Daldie-mx1gn 3 месяца назад

It along with Take Five made it into the top 40. Very unusual. Perhaps the crossover you were looking for?

@edwardmallon8679 4 года назад

Brings back memories no end. I remember this was on the jukebox at my favorite bar in St Paul Minnesota. I remember feeding coins into it . Sounds as great now as back then. The good old days

@peterholzer1452 10 лет назад

Thank you for posting this. I miss Eddie Harris. We lost him far too early in '96.

@georgesember9069 4 года назад

I've been a rampant Joe Diorio fan since I first heard this 60 years ago on Symphony Sid's late night radio station out of NYC, tho I was in Lyndhurst, NJ at the time. My high school band instructor was Paul Martin Zonn,who let us play records in his office during lunch hour. He was an all-around heavyweight but wasn't impressed with Eddie! I saw Eddie one time at the Keystone Korner back in the 70s. He was great!!

@bingo1232 10 лет назад

Thank God Eddie Harris saves this song from the maudlin and mundane! Jazz is a noble art. Eddie and the gang do a smashing job. As for the politics of the song, I say… "To have a friend, be a friend."

@newmansteven13 10 лет назад

Listen to Grant Green's version of this. Awesome!

@bingo1232 10 лет назад

Thanks Steve -- I will.

@violetgalatee3473 8 лет назад

what do you mean by "the politics of the song.." ? is there a story behind it ? sorry , i dont know that much about jazz , im just learning :)

@reneehenderson6134 7 лет назад

I don't know if the song is political, but it sure is HISTORICAL in more ways than one.

@aNumber1NorCal 12 лет назад

smooth as silk...... makes me remember back to a late night driving across the Bay Bridge in San Francisco..

Was in my second year at DePaul when I heard this tune .... love at first hear ....

Eddie Harris, as always, sets a mood that takes you somewhere deep inside you had not planned on going. This takes me back to clubs in the South, circa 1960-61, when things like this, Moon River, and assorted Jimmy Smith, Ray Charles and other great jazz groups' songs were on almost every jukebox. This sure brings back memories!

@geraldjohnson848 9 лет назад

Outstanding. Period. thanks for the post. Blessings

@MikeNeer 10 лет назад

Great sound. I love this record.

@anthonywhitehead6114 4 года назад

EDDIE HARRIS was the man! He could make that sound that couldn't be duplicated by anyone. I cried like a baby when he passed. He'll always be my number 1 sax player!

My very first jazz album when I was a kid. Still have it, still play it. Thanks.

@mizpahboy7513 8 лет назад

+MARY JO Hartnett In 1961 I was 11 years old. I brought two jazz 45's with the money I made cutting grass 1. Eddie Harris "Exodus" the other was Yusef Lateef's "Love Theme From Spartacus"....At that time I thought these two jams was the coolest cuts ever.....it is now 20016 and I am 65 years old....and I still feel the same about them. There is something magic about them....

There's a lot of good stuff that's not getting any play time and that's too bad.

@montseret1 9 лет назад

Really good stuff. I had this album way back in the 60's. Wish I still had it. I'd be grateful if you could post 'Alicia' and 'Gone Home' for me please. Hi from the south of France.

@JuneMoonProductions 12 лет назад

I was about 11 when this song was a hit, it was all over the radio. Three years later, Burt Bacharach composed The Look Of Love. I suppose I'm the only one that noticed how the opening notes of Look Of Love are the same as those of Exodus, just slightly different phrasing.

One of the pieces I picked out on the piano when I was still in grade school, soon after this version was released. Thank you Eddie Harris. My roots music.

@carlfrolberg 13 лет назад

This is a great song, but no one plays it on the radio. Take Five was about 5 yrs before this and it too was great.

@brentrau6792 11 лет назад

I first discovered this on a Time'Life compilation. Prior to that, I had never heard o Mr. Harris. But I've been since that I now know. A very tasteful jazz take on a movie theme. And a just flat great jazz jam.
