Cookin' Together' is an album by saxophonist Red Holloway with organist Brother Jack McDuff's Quartet recorded in 1964 and released on the Prestige label.[1]

Reception

Allmusic awarded the album 4½ stars stating "The material is Burt Bacharach's "Wives and Lovers," "This Can't Be Love," and five Holloway originals, which have more diversity than one might expect. An interesting aspect to the soulful and swinging set is that McDuff made his debut on piano for two songs".[2]
