Shirley Scott – Walkin Thing (CD)
Product Details
Shirley Scott spent decades as one of the most soulful voices in jazz organ, cutting her teeth alongside Stanley Turrentine and holding her own against any hard bop heavyweight of her era. Recorded at Van Gelder Studio with Rudy Van Gelder at the board, this session captures an artist returning to her roots with full command and quiet grace, knowing exactly what she wanted to say.
Softpack Wallet - Remastered by Bernie Grundman. 1992's A Walkin' Thing is the last of three albums the great American organist Shirley Scott recorded for Candid, and her final recording before her passing. First and foremost, Scott was a trained pianist, and it should be noted that towards the end of her life, she gravitated more to that instrument. But here, Scott returns to form, making this recording bitter sweet. Recorded in 1992 at the at the famed Van Gelder Studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey and engineered by Rudy Van Gelder. This recording has been remastered by legendary mastering engineer Bernie Grundman.
