Mike Carr | Good Times & The Blues | Album
Released in 1993, Good Times & The Blues is a soul-jazz album by the renowned British Hammond organist Mike Carr, featuring both quartet and trio configurations. Reviews of Carr’s work describe his playing as "exclamatory hard bop" with an "unkempt, soulful drive". His technique is often compared to Jimmy Smith, though critics highlight his unique ability to make the bass pedals swing with "note-perfect compositions". The record is celebrated for its lean, traditional jazz-blues approach, avoiding the over-produced "mainstream" traps of 90s jazz-funk.
