Crazy! Baby Review

by Scott Yanow

This excellent LP features Jimmy Smith's working group of the period, a trio with guitarist Quentin Warren and drummer Donald Bailey. The organist's version of the opening number, "When Johnny Comes Marching Home," was a hit, and just as memorable are Smith's renditions of "Makin' Whoopee," "Sonnymoon for Two," and "Mack the Knife." A fine example of Smith's talents.
