Jimmy smith put the hammond b 3 organ on the jazz map for good in the 1950s. The sermon is at least a decade ahead of its time and without it and other great bebop albums of the time the improvisational elements of rock music would not have been possible. Smith and kenny burrell were a dynamite team and jimmy smith would later record two stellar albums with the other greatest guitarist of all time wes montgomery. Smith s smooth vibratoless sound perfectly suits.
