Jimmy Smith: The Champ: Live in Hermosa Beach LP
Jimmy Smith had it all: A capacious imagination, an ability to create seat-of-the-pants improvisation, deep soul and the curiosity to find new sounds on the Hammond B3 organ.
Recently discovered in the Verve vaults, this previously unreleased 1965 live recording from the legendary club The Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach, California finds the Jimmy Smith trio digging into a deeply greasy, bluesy, funky groove performing a previous hit, “The Sermon”; jazz standards; and a new Smith blues. Featuring guitarist Quentin Warren and drummer Billy Hart.
