Katanga!

Katanga! is an album by saxophonist Curtis Amy recorded in early 1963 for the Pacific Jazz label.

Reception

AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow observed: "Amy had a fine hard bop-oriented style with a soulful sound. […] Obscure but rewarding music that was overshadowed during the era and was previously long out of print."
