Jimmy Smith's Verve recordings are less groundbreaking than his Blue Note discography from a jazz perspective. Nonetheless, the organist's interpretations of "The Cat," "Theme from Joy House" and "Main Title from The Carpetbaggers" offer tasty arrangements by Lalo Schifrin, as well as proficient playing on an ample supply of blues compositions. Moreover, the fusion of an organ and big band often sounds very attractive, making this commercial collection an appealing buy.
