John EckmanHarold Vick, Steppin’ Out!, 1963 on Blue Note
Debut album from Harold Vick (as a leader), recorded Rudy Van Gelder’s studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, with a wonderful supporting cast: Blue Mitchell, Grant Green, John Patton, and Ben Dixon.
Vick would also go on to play with folks like King Curtis and Aretha Franklin, and passed in 1987. Great album of early 60s Blue Note jazz.
My copy—via Academy Records in NYC—is the Blue Note Tone Poet reissue from 2022.

Compost (also titled Take Off Your Body) is the eponymous debut album from Compost who were an American jazz fusion band that released two albums for Columbia Records.
Its members were Bob Moses, Harold Vick, Jumma Santos, Jack Gregg and Jack DeJohnette. The band was formed in 1971 as a cooperative, with the members splitting the proceeds of a contract DeJohnette negotiated with Columbia Records to make four records. De Johnette recalled in a 2011 interview that the name suited the band's makeup as "a potpourri of mixes of things: Jazz, rock, some soul and some free-form things", which resulted in "good compost music".
After recording their first album, Take off Your Body, they performed as a group in New York several times, notably as the opening band for Yes on February 19, 1972 at the Academy of Music.. - Wikipedia
Compost – Take Off Your Body (1972)
His Majesty King Funk is a jazz album recorded in 1965 by Grant Green. It features Green with tenor saxophonist Harold Vick, organist Larry Young, drummer Ben Dixon and percussionist Candido.
John Heidt wrote about this album at Vintage Guitar magazine: “Green’s His Majesty King Funk is well-named. With five cuts of soul-drenched jazz, it’s easy to see why he’s the darling of the acid-jazz movement. He had an earthiness to his playing not found in lots of other jazz guitarists, and this set, with Larry Young on organ lets that shine through” - Wikipedia
