Jimmy Smith • I'm Movin' On



Review by Scott Yanow
I'm Movin' On has a perfectly suitable title -- it's the first of four albums that organist Jimmy Smith made within an eight-day period for Blue Note before permanently leaving the label for Verve. Although notable for matching Smith with guitarist Grant Green in what would be their only joint recording (drummer Donald Bailey completes the trio), the music is a fairly typical Smith session with the repertoire including blues, a couple of standards, and ballads. The solos are well-played but nothing too surprising occurs.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
I'm Movin' On tiene un título perfectamente adecuado: es el primero de los cuatro álbumes que el organista Jimmy Smith grabó en un período de ocho días para Blue Note antes de abandonar definitivamente el sello por Verve. Aunque destaca por juntar a Smith con el guitarrista Grant Green en lo que sería su única grabación conjunta (el batería Donald Bailey completa el trío), la música es una sesión bastante típica de Smith, con un repertorio que incluye blues, un par de standards y baladas. Los solos están bien tocados, pero no hay nada demasiado sorprendente.
