Jimmy Smith - Root Down [New Vinyl LP] 180 Gram Artist: Jimmy Smith Title: Root Down Format: Vinyl LP Genre: Jazz UPC: 602547793591 Release Date: 2016 Record Label: Verve Album Tracks DISC 1: 1. Sagg Shootin' His Arrow [Live] 2. For Everyone Under the Sun [Live] 3. After Hours [Live] DISC 2: 1. Root Down (And Get It) [Live] 2. Let's Stay Together [Live] 3. Slow Down Sagg [Live] Limited 180 gram vinyl LP pressing. Root Down captures the king of the Hammond B3 organ, Jimmy Smith, playing down and dirty R&B. The album includes two versions (one previously unissued) of Smith's "Root Down," a song covered by the Beastie Boys in 1994. There is also a hypnotic reading of Al Green's pleading "Let's Stay Together," which yet again proves that Jimmy Smith is a man with a lot of soul. Jimmy achieved the rare distinction of releasing a series of instrumental jazz albums that often charted on Billboard. Smith helped popularize the Hammond B-3 electric organ, creating an indelible link between sixties soul and jazz improvisation. Copyright DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
