Spicy!

Spicy! is an album by jazz organist Richard "Groove" Holmes which was recorded in 1966 and released on the Prestige label.

Reception
Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars stating "Although this is dependable B-3 Hammond soul-jazz, some of the songs selected for this set, such as "If I Had a Hammer" and "Never on Sunday," are inappropriate for soul-jazz translation. On the other hand, the adaptation of Luiz Bonfá's "Manhã de Carnaval" is good, and Nat Adderley's "Work Song" is a classic that's hard to mess up".
