The complete original Richard ‘Groove’ Holmes album "A Bowl of Soul" (1964) appearing here in its entirety for the first time ever on CD. All known additional tracks from the same sessions that produced the LP have also been added.
Richard "Groove" Holmes arrived to the music scene in the early 1960s (his first album, titled "Groove", was recorded in March 1961 and had Ben Webster on tenor sax as a guest accompanist). This album came just before Holmes' big hit with his 1965 recording of "Misty".
Richard "Groove" Holmes
Active Decade: '60s
Born: May 02, 1931 in Camden, NJ
Died: Jun 29, 1991 in St. Louis, MO
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Soul Jazz, Hard Bop
Revered in soul-jazz circles, Richard "Groove" Holmes was an unapologetically swinging Jimmy Smith admirer who could effortlessly move from the grittiest of blues to the most sentimental of ballads. Holmes, a very accessible, straightforward and warm player who was especially popular in the black community, had been well respected on the Philadelphia/Southern New Jersey circuit by the time he signed with Pacific Jazz in the early '60s and started receiving national attention by recording with such greats as Ben Webster and Gene Ammons. Holmes, best known for his hit 1965 version of "Misty," engaged in some inspired organ battles with Jimmy McGriff in the early '70s before turning to electric keyboards and fusion-ish material a few years later. The organ was Holmes' priority in the mid- to late '80s, when he recorded for Muse (he also had stints throughout his career with Prestige Records and Groove Merchant) . Holmes was still delivering high-quality soul-jazz for Muse (often featuring tenor titan Houston Person) when a heart attack claimed his life at the age of 60 in 1991 after a long struggle with prostrate cancer. He was a musician to the end, playing his last shows in a wheelchair.
