10:00 PM B-3 Organ Night: A Tribute to Jimmy Smith

A Tribute to Jimmy Smith

One year has passed since the legendary Hammond Organist Jimmy Smith
died.  A master of all things B-3, Jimmy Smith raised the bar on not
just playing the organ, but the genre as well. Since this loss the jazz
organ scene has been vacant of its creator and most innovative player.
To try to fill this void, Hammond Organ Night at the Lily Pad pays
tribute to this legendary musician with an evening full of swing, funk,
and the nasty organ-grit that he personified.  Featuring Sam Gilman and
his trio, with many special guests!
Every Thursday at The Lily Pad (formerly the Zeitgeist Gallery) is
Hammond Organ Night.  Celebrating the  portable organ in all its glory!
 The night features a constantly shifting array of local organ players,
bringing everything from straight-ahead avant Organ Jazz to Reggae Dub
Funk and everything in-between.

10pm  $8
