Houston Express (album)

Houston Express is the ninth album led by saxophonist Houston Person.

It was recorded April 8 & 9, 1971 and released on the Prestige label.

[1][2][3] To date, it has only been re-released on Compact Disc in South Africa.

[4] Allmusic awarded the album 4½ stars stating "As period soul-jazz goes, this is considerably above the average.

It's funky, but not in the bland crossover sense; there's a sense of jazz ensemble discipline to the arrangements, but it's still R&B-based enough to groove to".
