In Reply to: "The Giants", why an organ? posted by jimbill on November 2, 2005 at 20:21:31:
Generally I'm not a big fan of jazz organ either; too often some B-3 players come across as skating rink organists, especially when doing ballads (Not Larry young though!). About the only musician who ever made me wish for more was Count Basie, who unfortunately recorded very little on the instrument. Dr. Lonnie Smith & Jimmy Smith are quite good when I'm in the mood.
