How Can We Help?
I'm Movin' On is an album by American jazz organist Jimmy Smith featuring performances recorded in 1963, but not released on the Blue Note label until 1967.[1] It was rereleased on CD with two bonus tracks from the same session.
Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars stating:
"the music is fairly typical of a Jimmy Smith session with the repertoire including blues, a couple of standards and ballads. The solos are well-played but nothing too surprising occurs".[2]
