As a member of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers and Cannonball Adderley’s Quintet, he helped shape some of the era’s defining recordings while contributing compositions that would become jazz standards in their own right. His debut as a bandleader gave him the chance to step out from behind those legendary groups and reveal the full scope of his talent. Rooted in the gospel music he grew up with in his father’s Philadelphia church, Timmons blended blues, soul, and swinging hard bop into his own unique style. More than sixty years later, \u003cem\u003eThis Here Is Bobby Timmons\u003c\/em\u003e is joining Craft Recording’s Original Jazz Classics series on 180-gram vinyl cut from the original tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, \u003cem\u003eThis Here Is Bobby Timmons\u003c\/em\u003e is an excellent debut by a stellar pianist. While Timmons would only live to 38 after contracting cirrhosis from drug and alcohol addiction, his legacy as composer and pianist lives on. Soul jazz players like Grant Green, Junior Mance, and Jack McDuff all were inspired by Timmons’ style. For anyone exploring hard bop and soul jazz beyond its biggest names, this debut remains an essential listen as it captures Bobby Timmons at the peak of his creativity. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/glidemagazine.com\/327767\/hard-bop-gospel-and-groove-bobby-timmons-debut-this-here-is-bobby-timmons-still-swings-on-crafts-original-jazz-classic-series-album-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eGlide Magazine\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis Here is Bobby Timmons\u003c\/em\u003e is a document from one of the major jazz movements of the fifties and sixties, and should be appreciated in that spirit. This release provides the most transparent glimpse yet into Timmons’ soulful playing and his studio sessions. Also recommended for a fuller vision of Timmons as a performer are his key sessions with Cannonball and with the Jazz Messengers. As a sideman, he was hard to beat; as a composer, he added new sounds and rhythms to the rich griot of jazz; as a leader, his tragically short career denied him the time to grow and mature. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jarretthousenorth.com\/2004\/12\/07\/review-this-here-is-bobby-timmons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eJarrett House North\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" data-testid=\"embed-iframe\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/5kDrLzI5ujfQ9eOjKM4h8o?utm_source=generator\u0026amp;theme=0\u0026amp;si=eec520166e3f40f0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Riverside Records \/ Craft Recordings\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo, 180g\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2026 \/ Originally Released: 1960\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Hard Bop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Audiophile Jazz\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Craft Recordings \/ Riverside Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48235128848542,"sku":"888072745407","price":60.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/Bobby-Timmons-This-Here-Is-Bobby-Timmons-OJC-Series-LP.jpg?v=1788510761","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.com\/products\/bobby-timmons-this-here-is-bobby-timmons-2026-original-jazz-classics-reissue","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
