Album Description
Available in:
Peter & the Wolf is a 1966 studio album by Jimmy Smith, with Oliver Nelson's big band. It's based on Sergei Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf.
Of all of organist Jimmy Smith's big-band albums recorded for Verve, this is one of the most imaginative ones. Oliver Nelson arranged a variety of themes from Prokofiev's Peter & the Wolf into a swinging suite featuring the great organist Jimmy Smith. Although there is no verbal narrative on this LP, Nelson's liner notes tell the story (which can actually be followed through the music) and Smith pays respect to the original melodies while making strong statements of his own. A classic of its kind.
