Yes. More great music. Mr Hammond-B3.! On standard CD, ‘A Date With Jimmy Smith’. On vinyl, ‘Jimmy & Wes’ the Dynamic Duo. I have another couple of his albums with Lou Donaldson that I will look out!

This is quite definitely not a HiFi album, but a lovely historical artifact of an interesting time in UK cultural history, much of which has been suppressed and lied about ever since (and don’t get me started on the Battle of the Beanfield - this is a non-political site!).
What is interesting here is that despite being a lo-fi recording, there is much depth and nuance to be discovered lurking in the grooves nonetheless 
It also predates the rave scene (which is another interesting time in UK cultural history, much of which has been suppressed blah blah blah!).
