JIMMY SMITH The Incredible Jimmy Smith At Club "Baby Grand" Wilmington, Delaware (EX/VG+) Vinyl LP
Record label/brand: Blue Note BLP 1528 upc/mpn: None year: 1956
Jimmy Smith was instrumental in shifting the Hammond organ into the spotlight in the jazz genre and his many Blue Note albums of the 50s and 60s are considered to be classics.
This is The Incredible Jimmy Smith's 1956 Mono Blue Note release. 47 West 63rd address on label - RVG in dead wax. Circled "R" under NOTE. Cover is in Excellent condition. Front is glossy and back very clean. Corners have a slight blunt. There is a diagonal crease on the top left(spine) corner. There is some wear and minor chipping on the record opening side of the front cover. Vinyl has some scuffs - nothing major. There is some crackle so I rate it Very Good Plus.
Songs:
Side 1 1. Introduction By Mitch Thomas 2. Sweet Georgia Brown 3. Where or When
Side 2 4. The Preacher 5. Rosetta
Review: This is the organist at his raw, jaw-dropping best. You really do get the feeling of what those original jazz fans and curiousity seekers must have felt when first going to a Jimmy Smith show -- the Charlie Parker of the organ!
Personnel: Jimmy Smith - Organ; Thornel Schwartz - Guitar; Donald Bailey - Drums
