VA • Night Sounds - The Genesis Of Soul-Jazz Organ Combos [1956-1962]

Editorial Reviews

The most detailed CD exploration yet into the early 1960s rise of Jazz organists featuring the greatest exponents of the genre: Jimmy Smith, Jimmy McGriff, Brother Jack McDuff, Booker T and many others. Includes the defining hits like "Walk On The Wild Side", "I Got A Woman" and of course "Green Onion". One of the greatest things about this most popular sub-genre of jazz is how fresh most of the records still sound over fifty years after they were recorded. Many of these songs were covered by British bands during the blues boom and the genre was an important element in the emerging Mod movement.

Reseñas editoriales

La exploración más detallada de CD hasta ahora en el auge a principios de los años 60 de los organistas de Jazz con los más grandes exponentes del género: Jimmy Smith, Jimmy McGriff, el hermano Jack McDuff, Booker T y muchos otros. Incluye los éxitos definitorios como "Walk On The Wild Side", "I Got A Woman" y, por supuesto, "Green Onion". Una de las mejores cosas de este subgénero más popular del jazz es la frescura con la que la mayoría de los discos todavía suenan más de cincuenta años después de haber sido grabados. Muchas de estas canciones fueron interpretadas por bandas británicas durante el boom del blues y el género fue un elemento importante en el emergente movimiento Mod.

Jimmy Smith, Bill Doggett, Hank Marr, Larry Young, Brother Jack McDuff, Richard ''Groove'' Holmes, Shirley Scott,  Lou Donaldson, Baby Face Willette, Booker T. & The MG's ...
