Just added...

Jimmy Smith, Organ Grinder Swing. Just received today from yourmusic.com. I haven't listened to it yet, but I love the Hammond organ and Jimmy Smith was the master. This one has a very pared-down combo: Smith on organ, Kenny Burrell on guitar and Grady Tate on drums. I think that's the smallest group so far out of all my Jimmy Smith albums. Burrell, of course, also played guitar on the legendary Back at the Chicken Shack, the album that turned me on to jazz in general and Jimmy Smith in particular.
