Jimmy Smith - The Creeper

Review by Tyeasha VanBuren

The Creeper, the 1968 album by Jimmy Smith, is a masterpiece of soul jazz music. The album features Smith on the Hammond B-3 organ, accompanied by a talented group of musicians including guitarist Thornel Schwartz, drummer Donald Bailey, and saxophonist Jimmy Owens.

The album opens with the title track, "The Creeper," a funky tune with a catchy melody and a driving rhythm section. Smith's organ playing is both agile and powerful, and the band's interplay is tight and dynamic.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Slow Down Sagg," a bluesy number with a relaxed groove, and "Can Heat," a fast-paced tune with a Latin feel. Smith's improvisations are always inventive and melodic, and his solos are full of energy and soul.

Comments

Bought this album at Easter 1966. Several standout tracks, including this one.
An easy ride for Jimmy, who usually plays at a much higher and more technically challenging level, but a nice combination of improv, swinging, nostalgia, and fun!
Brooklyn's own Grady Tate on drums, arguably the best jazz drummer ever.
Never heard this before ?
I had this album back when people owned records, and I loved it as I love everything Jimmy Smith does -- the absolute master of the B3!
I love that 60's drum sound.
Nice thank you from Earl
Fabulosos recuerdos.
Gracias y un saludo
I had this LP before we traded records in for CDs. I absolutely loved it.
That was swinging!  Love it.
Haven't heard this in years, although I have the vinyl somewhere. One of his finest tracks, I think.
