Released: Apr 1966
Label: Impulse! Records
A well-balanced set of swing classics gets transformed into the kind of mod-era, Jimmy Smith-style, soul-jazz-goes-big-band numbers that were sailing up the pop charts at this time. Even with Smith collaborator Oliver Nelson on board, this set sounds fresh and fun, as Scott's clean, upbeat, singing organ is completely different from Smith's gritty hard-bop boogaloo.
