Jimmy Smith and Wes Montgomery - OGD (aka Road Song)

Sunday Jazz Continues, err actually it's our Afternoon Jazz segment, can you dig it? you probably can..

..as the saga / struggle continues / as life goes on / the toil and strife goes on, somebody will understand..

..or see what I'm saying as we come through with this fresh view / fresh vision; no delaying as we do our due diligence handling breakbeat scientific business; checked the archives, noticed the link was broken on this song.  

We're checking out  Jimmy Smith with Wes Montgomery from their album  "The Dynamic Duo" with a song called OGD aka The Road Song.

Its a classic y'all!! actually? this is kind of music Brotha O grew up on before I branched out into rock, funk, hip hop and house music!

Check out the players and the track, needless to say we're all up in the house with this music! 

• Jimmy Smith – Hammond organ
• Wes Montgomery – guitar
