Bobby Timmons - In Person / SHM-CD
2016 Japanese SHM-CD release
With Ron Carter & Albert Heath. Recorded in New York, 1961.
Bobby Timmons (1935-1974) became famous for his funky piano solos and for his ability to write catchy songs. He was actually a well-rounded pianist who was more versatile than many thought.
Timmons was part of the Philadelphia jazz scene before moving to New York in the mid-1950s. He worked with Kenny Dorham, Chet Baker, Sonny Stitt, and the Maynard Ferguson Orchestra. Timmons’s abilities helped two important bands to catch on. While with Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers (1958-1960) he contributed “Moanin’,” and when he was a member of the Cannonball Adderley Quintet (1959-1960), Timmons’s songs “This Here” and “Dat Dere” became quite popular.
Timmons, who began leading his own trios in 1961 but never quite achieved the commercial success of his former bosses, recorded for Riverside, Prestige, and Milestone during 1960-1968.
