"True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country." - Kurt Vonnegut The music is from the album Gatorade by saxophonist Willis Jackson. It was recorded in August 1971 and first released on the Prestige label. • Willis Jackson – tenor sax • Carl Wilson – organ • Boogaloo Joe Jones – guitar • Jerry Porter – drums • Buddy Caldwell – conga Willis "Gator" Jackson (April 25, 1932 – October 25, 1987) was an American jazz tenor saxophonist. Jackson joined Duke Ellington alumnus Cootie Williams's band in 1949 as a teenager, after being discovered by Eddie Vinson. During the 1950s Jackson participated in R&B and jazz recordings, primarily as a session musician. Jackson joined Prestige Records in 1959, making a string of jazz albums that proved to an influence on the burgeoning soul jazz movement.
