Our Take

Jazz Organists - Four Classic Albums brings together a quartet of groove-heavy, Hammond organ-fuelled albums that will have you tapping your toes and snapping your fingers from start to finish. With Jack McDuff, Baby Face Willette, Richard Holmes, and Gene Ammons each bringing their own unique style to the table, this collection is a must-have for any jazz enthusiast.

McDuff kicks things off with his album "The Honeydripper," a soulful and infectious blend of blues and jazz that will transport you straight to a smoky club in the heart of New Orleans. Willette follows suit with "Face to Face," a funky and dynamic record that showcases his undeniable talent on the keys. Holmes takes the spotlight on "Soul Message," serving up a masterclass in laid-back cool with his smooth and silky organ playing.

Ammons rounds out the collection with "Boss Tenor," a rollicking and energetic album that sees him teaming up with Freddie Roach for a blistering set of hard-bop tunes. Together, these four albums form a cohesive and captivating portrait of the organ's place in the jazz world, each artist bringing their own unique voice to the instrument.

Overall, Jazz Organists - Four Classic Albums is a must-listen for anyone looking to inject a bit of soul and groove into their music collection. So sit back, relax, and let these talented musicians take you on a journey through the swinging sounds of the organ.
