Agreed Winslow.....and how about some 1967 Overblows by  who I'm pretty sure 
is TOOTS on the
"In The Heat of The Night Soundtrack" check it out he must have been gappin' 
back then!,-) sweet huh!,-) . Toots later ofcourse was overblowing on  the 
1972 TOOTS & SVEND "Yesterday & Today Lp as well.

Check it out 1967! The Song is "Mama Caleba's Blues" Quincy Wrote all the 
Music for this film
