Product description

Dive into the vibrant world of soul jazz and hard bop with Shirley Scott's captivating album "Hip," released on June 11, 2021, under the Amanita label. This dynamic collection of tracks showcases Scott's mastery of the genre, blending the raw energy of hard bop with the smooth grooves of soul jazz and the modern edge of acid jazz. With a runtime of 1 hour and 17 minutes, "Hip" is a testament to Scott's enduring influence and innovation in the jazz world.

The album opens with the infectious "Hip Soul" and takes you on a journey through a variety of moods and tempos. From the introspective "By Myself" to the upbeat "Hip Twist," and the tender ballad "At Last," Scott's organ playing is both powerful and nuanced. The tracklist also includes a nod to jazz legend John Coltrane with "Trane's Blues," and a tribute to fellow organist Stanley Turrentine with "Stanley's Time."

Each track on "Hip" is a showcase of Scott's virtuosic playing and her ability to connect with the listener. Whether she's tearing up the keys on "Rippin' an' Runnin'" or delivering a soulful rendition of "That's All," Scott's passion and skill shine through. The album closes with the hauntingly beautiful "All Tore Down," leaving you with a sense of both satisfaction and longing for more.

For fans of jazz and those new to the genre alike, "Hip" is an essential addition to any music collection. Shirley Scott's timeless sound and innovative spirit make this album a standout in the world of jazz.

This is a 1972 Repress released as a LP.

Scott's Sophisticated Session
5 out of 5 stars
FwXosooNovember 3, 2024United Kingdom🇬🇧
During this period of Shirley Scott's career, the albums she recorded with her saxophonist husband Stanley Turrentine often have a bit more energy than her organ/bass/drums tracks, and HIP TWIST is a typically sophisticated session from November 1961, featuring a blend of covers and originals. This mono pressing has a warm and cozy sound, and my copy plays smoothly with occasional light surface noise.
