The organ can often take a back seat in the pecking order of great jazz instruments but underappreciate it at your peril! The likes of Jimmy Smith, Jack McDuff, Booker T. and Bill Doggett, to name but a few, made the instrument their own while crafting jazz cuts of dazzling brilliance.

This release is pretty much what you'd expect, three discs comprising 36 tracks (all remastered) of classic funky Hammond organ from all the people you would associate with it from the 1950s and into the '60s. Yes, "Green Onions", "I've Got A Woman", "Lullaby Of Birdland" and "All About My Girl" are here, but so are so many more lesser-known tunes.
