About this album
Back At The Chicken Shack is one of Jimmy Smith’s defining Hammond organ albums, a hard-bop session that made his bluesy, propulsive style feel both earthy and sophisticated. Recorded in 1960 and issued in 1963, it features a small-group line-up led by Smith’s booming organ, with tenor saxophone and guitar adding bite and soul to the groove. The title track became one of his signature tunes, alongside standards and originals that show his gift for turning simple themes into rich, swinging statements. Its mixture of accessibility, musicianship and feel helped cement Smith as the instrument’s most influential jazz voice.
