Jimmy Smith's best albums?


Just accidently discovered Jimmy Smith's music on an old LP. The album was in mint shape and the sound was incredible. Never would have guessed organ music could have sounded so good. Any opinions on his best albums would be greatly appreciated

Most of the Blue Note releases were very very good. One of my favorites and the most fun is Crazy Baby. There is a smoking version of "A Night in Tunisia". The ending will blow you away.

The bomb is "Open House" the whole thing just smokes. Followed by "House Party" which is almost as good. I must mention that the sound on these is excellent on LP.

The Japanese King and Toshiba LP reissues were excellent in every way.
