Lou Donaldson is an American jazz saxophonist, composer, and band leader. Born on November 1, 1926 in Badin, North Carolina, United States, he has made significant contributions to the world of jazz music.

Known for his soulful and melodic style of playing the saxophone, Lou Donaldson has captivated audiences with his unique sound. He has collaborated with renowned artists such as *Stanley Turrentine*, *Blue Mitchell*, *Kenny Dorham*, and many others.

With a career spanning several decades, Lou Donaldson has released numerous albums as both a bandleader and a sideman. His compositions showcase his talent for creating memorable melodies that resonate with listeners.

Alto saxophonist Lou Donaldson scored a hit with “Alligator Bogaloo,” the jaunty and memorable lead cut and title track of his 1967 soul jazz classic, but the album brims with funky grooves from start to finish with the breezy “Aw Shucks,” rollicking “Rev. Moses,” and the sinuous minimalism of “One Cylinder.” Alligator Bogaloo marked the beginning of a fruitful and long-running collaboration between Lou and organ master Dr. Lonnie Smith, with the stellar band.
