Organist mixes his own blend

Hammond B3 organist Larry Goldings has been praised for the way he blends the influences of his idols (Jimmy Smith and Larry Young, among others) with his own imaginative approach to the instrument, juxtaposing foot-tapping blues segments with ear-grabbing chordal dissonances. At Jazz Bakery this weekend, the 36-year-old virtuoso will perform with his longtime collaborators: guitarist Peter Bernstein and drummer Bill Stewart.
