He was awesome. Medeski must be pretty torn up about this, his musical daddy just died.

Damn. I recently picked up Blue Note's RVG re-release of "House Party" and it blew me away. Highly recommended.

I was wondering how Del Rio was gonna make up for this. He'd been injured a lot lately anyway.

Wasn't there an old Blues guitarist called Jimmy Smith too? That's who I was thinking of when I clicked on the thread but thinking about it I'd imagine he was long gone.

The Sremon is my favorite Jimmy Smith...but just about anything I've heard from him has been good. Shame to see him go.
