JIMMY SMITH Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Blue Note continues to serve up reissues of its most classic albums and this from Jimmy Smith user is one of them. Known for being a legendary player of the Hammond B3 organ, he recorded a couple of soul jazz classics in Midnight Special and Back at the Chicken Shack, both on the same day in April 1960 at the famous Van Gelder Studio. Smith lead the way with his self taught organ skills alongside Stanley Turrentine on tenor saxophone, Kenny Burrell on guitar, and Donald Bailey on drums. This album features the hard hitter 'Jumpin' the Blues' amongst many other gems.
