Jazz
Recorded at Manhattan Towers, New York, New York (02/1957)
Jimmy Smith - organ
Eddie McFadden, Thornel Schwartz - guitar
Art Blakey, Donald Bailey - drums
This album, part of a three-day marathon recording session, focuses on Jimmy Smith's ability to reinvent standards in the context of his trio rather than his forays into blues and gospel. Art Blakey is the guest drummer on one track and "The Fight" is an amazing solo organ performance. Three bonus tracks have been added to the original album.
* Bonus tracks, not part of original LP |
