Jimmy Smith-Midnight Special (1960)

Another fine organ lead band from Jimmy Smith.  Legend has it that he locked himself in a room for months after buying his first Hammond B and just learned stnadards everyday.  Thats how he came to be. Midnight Special was culled from the same recording session that produced Back to the Chicken Shack. If you're familiar with that session you may as well just download this now because this disc is comparably smoking. This recording is great and with a super line-up:


Organist -Jimmy Smith
Tenor saxophonist -Stanley Turrentine
Guitarist -Kenny Burrell
Drrummer-Donald Bailey

Tracks:
 1. Midnight Special
 2. Subtle One
 3. Jumpin' the Blues 
 4. Why Was I Born?
 5. One O'Clock Jump
