    Root Down was Hammond B-3 jazz legend Jimmy Smith's 1972 live album for Verve.

    Recorded in Los Angeles in 1972, it features a young band that were very influenced by the funk and rock scenes of the time. The album’s title track was famously sampled by the Beastie Boys for their 1995 recording of the same name.
