Description
Jimmy Smith - Any Number Can Win (APE+CUE)
Please keep seeding at least 3:1 ratio. With a fat, dynamics-busting horns and woodwinds section utterly transforming the standard sound of Jimmy Smith's trio, ANY NUMBER CAN WIN may bear more of a resemblance to Henry Mancini than to the rootsy grooves one has come to expect from Smith. Which is not to say that the disc doesn't swing; quite the opposite. Smith's Hammond organ sound is oozy enough to liquefy bones, and his powerful, syncopation-addicted right hand intensifies the effect. Guest musicians turn in fine performances, including guitarist Kenny Burrell and the 20 or so members that make up the larger ensemble. The mood of ANY NUMBER CAN WIN alternates from the finger-popping big band interlude of "You Came A Long Way From St. Louis," to slinky boogie-inducers like "The Ape Woman" and the title track (theme song from an MGM movie), ballads like "Georgia On My Mind" and cool electric blues like "The Sermon" and the cover of Ray Charles "What'd I Say?" While perhaps a bit too uber-groovy for jazz purists, those who are looking for instrumental a-go-gos in true swinging 60's style won't be disappointed in this release. One of Verve's most popular discs, recently re-issued on Verve By Request.
