Zusammen mit "The Cat" war dies eines der größten Hit-Alben der Verve-Ära. Aufgenommen in New Jersey am 14. und 15. Juni 1965.

"To many," Al Young writes, the organ "truly did belong in church, in classical music, in movie palaces, or at the roller rink — anyplace but in jazz. In the end, it was fans and listeners who turned the tide — people for whom jazz was still a functioning social music." Jimmy Smith was the Hammond organ soloist most determined to break with the instrument’s past, incorporate modern idioms, and yet find his way to a new popular acceptance of the instrument, his ideas, and jazz itself.

Kenny Burrell and Grady Tate are the perfect accompanists for Smith’s organ-grinding, and the three musicians produced a true hit here with the title track.
