The Beastie Boys are releasing their new instrumental album “The Mix-Up” today, so I thought I would post one of their major influences. “Giants Of The Organ In Concert” by Jimmy Mcgriff & Groove Holmes is a live set of Hammond B3 based funky jazz workouts recorded in 1973 at Paul’s Mall nightclub in Boston. If your familiar with the song “Groove Holmes” off the Beastie’s 1992 album “Check Your Head” then that will give you an idea what to expect from this set. This Double LP was released on the Groove Merchant label. The label was started in 1971 by Sonny Lester. He was the creator of 1963’s classic album “How To Strip For Your Husband”. If you are ever out thriftin’ & see a Groove Merchant LP, Buy It!Tuesday, June 26, 2007
