This previously unreleased album was recorded in 1958 at one of 31
sessions that the phenomenal and prolific organist Jimmy Smith
participated in during his tenure at Blue Note. Credited with
transforming the Hammond B-3 from a novelty item into one of the most
popular instruments in jazz, Smith helped create the organ-trio sound
and establish the soul-funk style so popular on jukeboxes across the
U.S. in the late 1950s. An all-blues program with Cecil Payne wielding a
rather cumbersome baritone saxophone, Six Views is hardly
revolutionary--perhaps explaining why the album was originally kept in
the can. Thankfully, today's criteria for what is release worthy differ
from the standards in the late 1950s, allowing us to hear Smith with
guitarist Kenny Burrell and drummer Art Blakey in what has become a rare
recording. The grooves here are sublime with a stellar "St. Louis
Blues" and Payne proves to be an unusually nimble soloist on the big
baritone.
