Description:
Root Down captures the king of the Hammond B3 organ, Jimmy Smith, playing down and dirty R&B. The album includes two versions (one previously unissued) of Smith's "Root Down," a song covered by the Beastie Boys in 1994.

There is also a hypnotic reading of Al Green's pleading "Let's Stay Together", which yet again proves that Jimmy Smith is a man with a lot of soul. On 180 gram vinyl. [Hide]
