Liner notes:

This release contains the complete album Please, Mr. Organ Player (Argo LPS670), which appears here for the first time ever on CD. As a bonus, we have added Buckner's album Send Me Softly (Capitol T938) in entirety, featuring the formidable alto saxophonist Earle Warren. Both albums present a similar instrumental format, with Bucker's organ backed by alto sax, guitar, bass and drums. A complete four-tune session (also featuring Earle Warren) and three further tunes from the same period that were first issued on singles have also been added as a bonus.
