"On a Clear Day" is a captivating jazz album by the renowned organist Shirley Scott, released in 1966 under the GRP label. This album is a stellar showcase of Scott's mastery over the organ, blending soul jazz, hard bop, and acid jazz into a cohesive and vibrant sound. The album features eight tracks, including the title track "On A Clear Day You Can See Forever," and other notable pieces like "What'll I Do," "Cold Winter Blues," and "What The World Needs Now Is Love." Each track is a testament to Scott's skill and the exceptional musicianship of her band, with notable contributions from Ron Carter on bass and Jimmy Cobb on drums. The album's original 1966 pressing is noted for its glorious mono sound, offering a rich, warm, and full soundstage that highlights the depth and clarity of each instrument.

Shirley Scott's Clear Day Masterpiece
5 out of 5 stars
WrYegouJune 17, 2024United States🇺🇸
Out of the roughly two dozen Shirley Scott albums that have graced my ears, "ON A CLEAR DAY" stands tall as my absolute favorite. Unlike the typical organ trio lineup of organ/guitar/drums or organ/sax/drums, Scott's trio often featured organ/bass/drums, and this January 1966 session is no different, with Ron Carter on bass and Jimmy Cobb on drums. Throughout this record, Scott's solos are a masterclass in her signature style—melodic, lightning-fast, and with a touch that's lighter yet just as commanding as her peers. This is an original 1966 pressing in stunning mono, boasting a rich bass, crisp and clear drums, a massive organ sound, and a warm, immersive soundstage. My copy plays like a dream, with barely any surface noise to be heard. Five stars and a big smiley face for this one!
