Domino is an album by American jazz saxophonist Roland Kirk, released on Mercury Records in November 1962...
The AllMusic review by Lindsay Planer states: "The expanding musical universe of Rahsaan Roland Kirk continues its orbit on Domino. While always true to his exceptional talents, Kirk's previous efforts are somewhat derivative when compared to his later and more aggressive sound. On Domino, the genesis of his more assertive presence is thoroughly evident." - Wikipedia

Return Visit! (issued as Tubby's Back In Town by Smash in the US) is an album by British jazz saxophonist Tubby Hayes, recorded in June 1962 and released on Fontana Records in 1963. Produced by Quincy Jones[2] and featuring the "All Stars" of Roland Kirk, James Moody, Walter Bishop, Jr., Sam Jones, and Louis Hayes, the session is notable for being Hayes's second to be recorded in the United States, following Tubbs in N.Y. in 1962. The line-up unusually includes three tenor saxophonists, all of whom double on other instruments.
Hayes wrote in the sleeve notes to the UK release that, "My feelings were somewhat mixed, possibly apprehensive. I was about to record with great American jazz men who knew nothing about the date until the day before and whom, apart from the piano player, I had never met."- Wikipedia

Kirk's Work (also reissued as Funk Underneath) is an album by Roland Kirk, with Jack McDuff. Prestige Records released the album in 1961
The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings describes Kirk's Work as "a largely forgotten Kirk album, but one which generally deserves the classic reissue billing." Ron Wynn has described the album as "a fine reissue of Kirk in a soul-jazz and mainstream vein." AllMusic notes a "swinging R&B vibe pervasive throughout the album," judging that "while certainly not the best in his catalog, it is a touchstone album that captures the early soulful Rahsaan Roland Kirk." - Wikipedia
