Music Lesson: The Organ Grinder's Swing by Jimmy Smith
So this tune is won by Jimmy Smith called "The Organ Grinder's Swing."
Overview:
- A very well-known, recognizable tune.
- Contains moments that are true "Hammond history."
- Recorded in 1965, it stands out as one of his most famous pieces.
Key Elements:
- The tune features:
- A walk down that is prominent.
- A blues riff section that also stands out.
- While I've included a bass line, it's not what was originally on the record.
Focus Points:
-
Concentrate on:
- The rundown
- The tone
- The licks that make it distinct
-
From the top, it's something like:
- A little break follows.
Technical Breakdown:
-
Concentrate on the walk down from A flat:
- Actually playing sixths, not in root position.
- A flat (Ab) sixth; for example:
- C, F, A flat at the top.
-
The recognizable blues riff at the beginning:
- Recorded in 1965.
- One of the moments in tunes associated with a Hammond.
Additional Notes:
-
The piece utilizes a lot of blues elements:
- Slipping off the flat five.
- Slipping off the minor third.
-
The underlying progression has a swinging bass line:
- A traditional 12-bar blues structure.
Variations in Play:
-
One variation involves a dead stop, transitioning:
- From Ab down to F, then A down to G (still with the sixth).
-
Following this, transitions into a guitar solo.
Exploration of Licks:
- There are several variations of blues licks:
- Notably featuring trills and the recurrence of slipping off the flat five.
Practice Tips:
-
Explore specific riffs that are frequently used and repeated:
- It may seem fast, but the technique often involves simple slips off the flat five and the minor third.
-
Phrasing Suggestions:
- Mix up your phrasing.
- Pull back or push forward as needed.
- Don't hesitate to hold and repeat phrases.
The rundowns are integral to the piece, embodying everyday blues organ language, but this is where it really originated.
