Jimmy Smith


I was told about Jimmy Smith recently and would like to pick up some of his music. Can anyone suggest his best album(s)? Thanks

Yeah I also agree that the Blue Note releases are his most
consistent. "Groovin' at Small's Paradise" is a great live
2-CD set. The Rudy Van Gelder remaster is terrific.

"Angel Eyes" on Polygram is one his better later releases
from 1995 with great supporting cast most notably Roy Hargrove
and Christian McBride.

And of course "Dot Com Blues" but I like "Angel Eyes" better.
