Jones-Brown-Smith (also released as Rockin' in Rhythm) is an album by pianist Hank Jones, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Jimmie Smith, recorded in 1976 for the Concord Jazz label.[1] [2]
AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars, stating: "An unusual aspect to the music is that on half of the eight standards Jones switches to electric piano; although he does not display as strong a musical personality on that instrument, he plays quite well." The Penguin Guide to Jazz praised the renditions of "Bags' Groove" and "Spring Is Here", but criticized the selection of other material, and preferred other Jones albums from the same period.
