Freddie Roach - Good Move (1963) Genre: Jazz

Allmusic.com:

Laid-back and loosely swinging, Good Move captures organist Freddie Roach near the peak of his form. Roach never leans too heavily on his instrument, preferring a calmer, tasteful attack, yet he is never boring because he has a strong sense of groove. He keeps things moving on slower numbers like Erroll Garner's "Pastel" and Gershwin's "It Ain't Necessarily So," but the true highlights are on originals like "Wine, Wine, Wine" and "On Our Way Up," where the bluesy structures and fluid rhythms give Roach a chance to stretch out. Throughout the record, he is capably supported by guitarist Eddie Wright and drummer Clarence Johnston, as well as trumpeter Blue Mitchell and tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley, who both contribute fine solos.

Amazon reviewer Eddie Landsberg:

I've mentioned the "obscure" Freddie Roach in many of my reviews, but at the time, almost all of his albums were impossible to get, unless you got them imported from Japan. How tragic, because, just a quick listen to the samples available to this one (one of his best !) let's you know that Freddie was (sadly he's gone) the forgotten genius of the B- 3. - - Along with Big John Patton, he forged a sound divergent from the Jimmy Smith school. Jimmy Smith viewed him as a "disciple" who covered up the cliches better than the rest. Coming from Jimmy that was actually praise. - - Listen to WHEN MALINDY SINGS (a Freddie Roach original) to hear the genius of this man and his ability to groove... and his mastery of the Minor Blues. While most post Jazz organists liked to play hot, Freddie went for a cool stretched out sound... earthy, visceral, yet with many brilliantly explorative angles. Its almost like Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers with an organ. - - Listen to the depth of his basslines and his unique groove... Freddie Roach was well ahead of his time. The music anticipates the innovations of Larry Young by years to come. (Along with Freddie and Big John Patton was Billy Gardner who recorded some incredible albums with George Braith. Sadly most if not all of Braith's solo CDs are out of Print. Billy makes a brief appearence on a live Lou Donaldson CD which I believe is called Fried Buzzard.)
