LEGENDARY ORGANIST DR. LONNIE SMITH
RETURNS TO BLUE NOTE FOR JANUARY 29 RELEASE OF EVOLUTION
HIS FIRST ALBUM FOR ICONIC LABEL SINCE 1970
Dr. Lonnie Smith is set to release his first Blue Note album in 45 years with the January 29 release of Evolution. The album marks the return of the legendary Hammond B-3 organ master to the label where he first made a name for himself in the late 1960s, first as a sideman with saxophonist Lou Donaldson on albums including Alligator Bogaloo, and soon after as a leader with his own soul-jazz classics such as Think! and Turning Point.
