Tribute To Jimmy Smith Lucky Peterson SKU: JV3357014748 Barcode: 3149027004879 20.00 £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Jazz Village Released Date: 13th October 2017 Buying Format: 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Lucky Peterson focuses on his favourite instrument, the Hammond B-3 organ, and its warm sound to pay tribute to his mentor and friend, king of the B3 Jimmy Smith. Lucky has chosen to work on this project with some real virtuosos, including the great drummer Herlin Riley and one of the greatest saxophonists of all time, Archie Shepp. Throughout this album, Lucky Peterson proves he has absorbed a long musical history anchored in the blues, but incorporating the beat of jazz, the groove of rhythm ‘n’ blues and the energy of rock ‘n’ roll. Twelve years after his death, the time is right for Lucky Peterson to pay tribute to Jimmy Smith’s genius and passion, by focusing on his chosen instrument and performing for the first time some of the great jazz standards, such as his take on the sublime Garner tune Misty. The album is predominantly instrumental, but vocals are used twice: Lucky Peterson himself sings on a surprising cover of A Song for You by Leon Russell – which Donny Hathaway also sang beautifully way back when, and which has been renamed Singin’ This Song 4 You – and then Archie Shepp sings his heart out, yelling the blues in his inimitable ‘shouter’ style on Jimmy Wants to Groove, a composition by Lucky Peterson. “Jimmy Smith, the Philadelphia-born Hammond organ pioneer, who died aged 76 in 2005, generally approached his performances like a man who was certain he was in showbusiness, rather than art. Smith’s gigs regularly involved plenty of stagey gesticulation, badinage with audiences, and mopping his brow with towels. The music was mostly rooted in that most accessible 20th-century formula, the twelve-bar blues. But the art was never far below the surface. Smith refined and modernised a musical instrument better designed for travelling preachers, magic shows or the end of the pier. He brought a sophisticated and high-powered pianist’s technique to it, and in coupling the Hammond’s holy-rolling aptitudes to bebop, helped open up modern jazz to audiences otherwise impatient with its intricacies.” John Fordham, The Guardian Artist Lucky Peterson Genre Jazz Label Jazz Village Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Night Train The Sermon The Champ Jimmy Wants to Groove Singin this Song 4 U Jimmy's Jumpin Misty Back at the Chicken Shack Blues for Wes Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Lucky Peterson and more from Jazz View Product Quick View Lucky Peterson I’m Ready Blues | DECCA(UMO) | 2LP Released 28th July 2023 £35.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Lucky Peterson I’m Ready £35.00 Genre: Blues Label: DECCA(UMO) SKU: 4548001 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 28th July 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Lucky Peterson 50 – Just Warming Up Blues | Jazz Village | 2LP Released 20th December 2019 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lucky Peterson 50 – Just Warming Up £24.00 Genre: Blues Label: Jazz Village SKU: JV570135 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 20th December 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jackie McLean Bluesnik (Classic Vinyl Series) Jazz | Blue Note | 180g, 1LP Released 17th February 2023 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jackie McLean Bluesnik (Classic Vinyl Series) £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 4859549 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 17th February 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lou Rawls / Les McCann Ltd.
