But as he shows on this 1963 trio date (with either Sam Jones or Ron Carter on bass and drummer Connie Kay), Timmons was actually a well-rounded player when inspired. The repertoire on his album ranges from bop to spirituals, from three diverse originals to "Born to Be Blue." This is excellent music but unfortunately Timmons would not grow much musically after this period. His album is worth picking up...(AllMusic)<br>_______________________________________________________________________________________________ <br>Tracklist:<br>01.Born to Be Blue (M.Torme/R.Wells)...(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygu2EDMmK-w#"><u><font color="#0066cc">00:00</font></u></a>)<br>02.Malice Towards None (Tom McIntosh)...(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygu2EDMmK-w#"><u><font color="#0066cc">04:27</font></u></a>)<br>03.Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child (Traditional)...(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygu2EDMmK-w#"><u><font color="#0066cc">09:28</font></u></a>)<br>04.Know Not One (Bobby Timmons)...(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygu2EDMmK-w#"><u><font color="#0066cc">14:13</font></u></a>)<br>05.The Sit-In (Bobby Timmons)...(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygu2EDMmK-w#"><u><font color="#0066cc">22:11</font></u></a>)<br>06.Namely You (G.DePaul/J.Mercer)...(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygu2EDMmK-w#"><u><font color="#0066cc">26:31</font></u></a>)<br>07.Often Annie (Bobby Timmons)...(<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygu2EDMmK-w#)."><u><font color="#0066cc">32:36</font></u></a><br>_______________________________________________________________________________________________ <br>Personnel:<br>1.Bobby Timmons - piano<br>2.Sam Jones (tr.1,2,5,7) - bass<br>3.Ron Carter (tr.3,4,6) - bass<br>4.Connie Kay - drums. <br>_______________________________________________________________________________________________ <br>Genre:Jazz/Hard Bop/Soul-Jazz<br>Recorded:Plaza Sound Studios;N.Y.C;Aug.12(tr.3,4,6) and Sept.10(tr.1,2,5,7),1963.<br>Label: Riverside Records – RS 468<br>Producer - Orrin Keepnews<br>Design – Ken Deardoff<br>Engineer – Ray Fowler<br>Photography By – Peter Oliver.</p>
