In 1978, I learned how to play left hand bass lines by going to Jimmy's club in LA every day for 6 weeks. I am not an organist; I play piano and other keyboards. I learned how to swing by listening to the master. I have been playing key bass for the last 33 years. I'm not known to the the general public, but many musicians in the Southern California area who will read this know who I am. RIP, Jimmy Smith. I was the kid you laughed at when I sat in one night. You'd be proud of me today!!

Jimmy Smith inspired so many .............. !

I learned to play bass by trying to copy Jimmy's foot pedal work when I was in high school. Damn, thumpin the bass pedals with his feet, rythm figures with his left hand and great solo work with his right. I could barely cop the bass lines!

There are many wonderful B-3 players such as Monaco, DeFrancesco, Yahel, but brother, there was only one Jimmy Smith. Enough said!
