This classic Blue Note album from the master of the Hammond Organ Jimmy Smith was recorded in May 1959. With Smith are Donald Bailey on Drums, Percy France on Tenor Saxophone and Kenny Burrell Guitar. What you may have noticed is there is no bass player. The reason for that is that Jimmy Smith plays the bass lines on the Organ pedals, a talent normally associated with the Church Organ.The whole album is embued with the blues from the very first track, a slow and loping version of 'See See Rider'. A superb version of Ray Charles 'I Got a Woman' continues the blues feel. Both Burrell and Smith have lovely solos. This is the kind of infectious Jazz that should really be more popular than it is. A memorable tune and a groove that even the most ardent Jazz hater would be hard-pushed to dislike.
Mention should also be made of the fantastic album cover. Many of the Blue Note covers were works of art in there own right and this is one the best.
Jimmy Smith produced a number of classic Blue Note albums and they don't come much better than this one.
These records are from a private collection and have been lovingly cared for.Will ship worldwide at postal rate.
