I'm trying to come up with a list of Bobby Timmons' best compositions ... but don't have the discography to do it.

Here's my start:

Dat Dere

Moanin'

So Tired

This Here

Any help out there ?

Wow. Thanks guys.

That's a lot of material.

What are your faves?

I liked him better when he wasn't dead.

Me too.

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

My favourites are "Chicken & dumplin's" and "Soul food". My favourite Timmons tunes are "Pretty memory" and "The return of Ghengis Khan".

He sounded better when he wasn't dead ?

[JSngry]

Well, yeah. More gigs, and that kept the chops up.

[Lazaro Vega]

But he's more convincing on "So Tired" now.

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

But he's more convincing on "So Tired" now.

But most convincing on "Walking death".

I like him just 'cause he was from Philly.

Just got it. What a vibe. The man had soul. The Soulful Mr. Timmons.

Singlehandedly eliminates society's need for shrinks, couch docs, therapists, SSRIs, and benzos.

Yeah! So, when is Concord going to reissue "Chicken & dumplings"? The other trio session on Prestige.
