Another side of the multi-faceted Mr. Burrell is fully revealed on Verve's Blue Bash! by Kenny Burrell and Jimmy Smith, a 1963 set which finds the storied twosome focused strictly on blues-related material. Burrell's flowing guitar lines are the perfect complement to the soulful sound of Smith, the man who almost single-handedly pioneered the use of the Hammond B3 organ in jazz. Backed at times by bassists George Duvivier and Milt Hinton as well as powerful big-band drummer Mel Lewis, Burrell and Smith dig into the gospel-ish "Travelin'" with as much fervor as they lavish on the Little Willie John/Peggy Lee chart item "Fever." But it's the azure side of such standards as "Easy Living" and "Soft Winds" that rules the roost on this superb collaboration.
