5 out of 5 stars Great jazz album.......2006-08-07

5 out of 5 stars Horns...who needs them?!.......2003-06-07

Bobby Timmons one of the prime leaders of the soul jazz era wrote some of the finest pieces in that era, such as Dat Dere, This Here, and Moanin'. Most people only know of Bobby Timmons as a sideman Most people only know of Moanin' in the setting of Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. Same as Dat Dere. This Here was written for Cannonball Adderley's Quintet, which Bobby was in, in San Francisco. But hey when you have a pianist like Bobby Timmons who needs those horns any way? This album demonstrates Bobby's talents to the full from standards and ballads like Lush Life to My Funny Valentine to his awesome pieces Dat Dere, Moanin', and This Here. This album truly shows Bobby, one of the finest soul jazz pianists, as a leader not a sideman and at his prime. Any one familiar with Dat Dere, Moanin', or This Here should definitely check this album out.

3 out of 5 stars Pleasant also-ran by a great sideman.......2001-06-03

I've always been respectful of Bobby Timmons as a sideman--he's a versatile and virile pianist who always has something to say and says it cleanly. This trio album (with one piano solo piece, a throwaway) perhaps shows his weakness as a leader; he's very fluent but not very subtle. The disc is most interesting for two of Timmons's excellent originals, "Moanin'" and "Dat Dere." The only trouble is, "Moanin'" is much better rendered in the classic version on the Art Blakey album of the same name (on which Timmons plays), and "Dat Dere" was given its most transcendent cover (that I know of, anyway) by Rickie Lee Jones on the faux-lounge album "Pop Pop." They're both great pieces. Anyway, this is a pleasant listen and not a bad disc to have, but it's not essential (in my opinion) and I wouldn't recommend it unless you have some special interest in this pianist.

5 out of 5 stars A fingersnapping milestone.......2000-08-26

That Bobby Timmons was a great composer, this album is the proof of. It contains the first versions of some of his greatest and most popular compositions: "this here", "dat dere" and "moanin'. It's one of those trio records, that swings like a whole orchestra, yet conveys such an intimate feeling of joy. This record is so contageous that your fingers will start snapping by the end of the first chord, you just wait and see. Essential soul jazz at its very best.
