Live at the Lighthouse (Charles Earland album)

Live at the Lighthouse is a live album by organist Charles Earland which was recorded at the Lighthouse Café in Hermosa Beach in 1972 and released on the Prestige label.

[1][2][3] Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars stating "This date from 1972 at the legendary Lighthouse club offers a stunning vision of Earland the soul organist, not the jazzman.

Certainly there is plenty of improvisation here and many unexpected twists and turns in the arrangements, with decisions made and reacted to on the spot.

This is Earland digging so deeply into a groove emotionally that he's unconcerned with anything but feeling...

Make sure no one at your next throwdown has heart disease before you spin it".
