==Later life== [[File:Cannonball1961 (crop).jpg|thumb|Nat and Cannonball Adderley in [[Amsterdam]], 1961]] By the end of the 1960s, Adderley's playing began to reflect the influence of electric jazz. In this period, he released albums such as ''[[Accent on Africa]]'' (1968) and ''[[The Price You Got to Pay to Be Free]]'' (1970). In that same year, his quintet appeared at the [[Monterey Jazz Festival]] in California, and a brief scene of that performance was featured in the 1971 psychological thriller ''[[Play Misty for Me]]'', starring [[Clint Eastwood]]. In 1975 he also appeared in an acting role alongside [[JosΓ© Feliciano]] and [[David Carradine]] in the episode "Battle Hymn" in the third season of the TV series ''[[Kung Fu (1972 TV series)|Kung Fu]]''.<ref>{{cite web | title=KUNG FU (1972/5) | website=The Library of Congress | url=https://www.loc.gov/item/jots.200017038/ | access-date=June 4, 2020}}</ref> Songs made famous by Adderley and his bands include "This Here" (written by Bobby Timmons), "The Jive Samba", "Work Song" (written by [[Nat Adderley]]), "[[Mercy, Mercy, Mercy]]" (written by Joe Zawinul) and "Walk Tall" (written by Zawinul, Marrow, and Rein). A cover version of [[Pops Staples]]' "Why (Am I Treated So Bad)?" also entered the charts. His instrumental "Sack o' Woe" was covered by [[Manfred Mann]] on their debut album, ''[[The Five Faces of Manfred Mann]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.discogs.com/release/2173727-Manfred-Mann-The-Five-Faces-Of-Manfred-Mann|website=Discogs|title=Manfred Mann β The Five Faces Of Manfred Mann|date=September 11, 1964 |accessdate=April 4, 2023}}</ref>
