During 1961,
Jimmy Forrest recorded four albums for Prestige and its subsidiary New Jazz, all of which have been reissued on CD in the Original Jazz Classics series. The appealing tenor is matched up with 20-year-old organist
Larry Young, guitarist
Thornel Schwartz and drummer
Jimmie Smith. They perform two jump tunes ("Dexter's Deck" and
Doug Watkins' "Help"), a pair of blues, a swinging version of
Irving Berlin's "Remember," and a lone ballad ("When Your Lover Has Gone"). Excellent music that is also quite accessible.
