Now 78 years old. Dr. Lonnie Smith, an organ legend who has produced more than 30 leader albums and whose songs have been sampled in many other genres, including Hip Hop and R&B, released his third album since returning to Blue Note in 2016. Produced by Don Was, a Blue Note representative and old friend of Dr. Lonnie Smith. The album features six songs from a 2018 show at the famous jazz club Jazz Standard in Manhattan, NY, in honor of Smith's 75th birthday. The show led to the release of his spirited 2018 album, "All In My Mind," and these are the songs he is so eager to preserve as a work of art. The first and eighth songs on the album also feature Iggy Pop. Smith was performing at the Art Garage in Florida when Iggy Pop showed up and asked him to join him. This collaboration became a reality when Smith was performing at the Art Garage in Florida and Iggy Pop showed up and asked him to join him.It closes with a funk arrangement of Donovan's 1965 hit "Sunshine Superman."
