Stop All That Jazz is an album by singer and songwriter Leon Russell. The album was recorded in 1974 at Russell's House Studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma; Paradise Studios in Tia Juana, Oklahoma; Pete's Place in Nashville, Tennessee; and Shelter The Church Studio, in Tulsa. Stop All That Jazz is Russell's sixth solo album.
The Gap Band, a funky group of Tulsans, backed Russell on the Stop All That Jazz album. Through the Stop All That Jazz album Russell introduced the world to The Gap Band. The Gap Band then released its debut album Magician's Holiday on Russell's Shelter Records label. Later Russell played piano on the group's 1977 The Gap Band release.[4]
The album shows Russell's creativity, coming after his country music album Hank Wilson's Back Vol. I. There is a diverse array of songs on the album, some jazz as well as synthesizers and programmed drum machines. There are some standards written by others, including Bob Dylan's "The Ballad Of Hollis Brown" and Tim Hardin's "If I Were A Carpenter." "Wild Horses" by The Rolling Stones was added to later versions of the album as a bonus track. Willie Nelson helped with the album, playing guitar and singing on the song "Wabash Cannonball." John Cale also played on "If I Were a Carpenter". The album was produced by Tom Cartwright, Leon Russell and Denny Cordell.[5][6]
