Ike Quebec’s aptly titled 1961 album “Heavy Soul” is a soul-jazz masterpiece, with the tenor saxophonist joined by Freddie Roach on organ, Milt Hinton on bass and Al Harewood on drums. Ike’s robust horn conjures a variety of moods, from fast-paced swingers to seductive slow gems, concluding with a mesmerizing duo interpretation of “Nature Boy” with Hinton.
