Zu Nats „In the Bag“:
http://www.cannonball-adderley.com/1358.htm
It was during an early 1962 trip to New Orleans that Nat Adderley first heard the jazz that is being played there-mostly at odd moments and in odd places, by men who unavoidably get most of their gigs playing and recording rhythm-and-blues material. He was much impressed, not only by their talent, but also by their unusual degree of sureness and command of their instruments. The Adderleys attribute this to the fact that these men work often, and with all kinds of music-unlike many young musicians elsewhere who get on a jazz.or-nothing kick and consequently frequently suffer long non-working dry spells.
Nat immediately was struck with the idea of recording with some of these men. Cannonball enthusiastically seconded the motion and there wasn’t too much difficulty in convincing this writer not only that the date should be done, but also that it should take place in New Orleans. Standard procedure calls for bringing young talent to New York for a debut, and all too often the big city and an unfamiliar recording studio produce enough nervousness to make the final results a far cry from what was hoped for. In this case, the younger members had the advantage of being on home ground, while obviouly it would take a lot more than a strange studio to scare the old pros on this date. So Nat, Cannon, and Sam Jones (their regular bassist, fellow-Floridian, and long-time friend) arranged to return to New York from a California engagement by way of Louisiana, spent a couple of days rehearsing and putting things together, and then ripped through this altogether happy and soul-satisfying session.

Da Keepnews nie von sich selber schreibt, würde ich mal sagen scheidet er als Produzent eindeutig aus.
Die CD habe ich leider nicht und kenne sie auch nicht, allmusic gibt nur einen Engineer an, einen gewissen Cosimo Matassa (wiki).
Ha, gemäss der Seite hier (neu für mich, sieht toll aus!) ist Cannonball eben doch der Produzent:
