In 1961, his own jazz arrangement of Ernest Gold's theme from the movie Exodus became the first jazz record ever to be certified gold. One of the first musicians to successfully blend funk and jazz, Harris' 1967 album, \"The Electrifying Eddie Harris,\" reached the number 2 spot on the R\u0026amp;B charts. Presented here is Eddie's vintage 1970 album \"Smokin,'\" a classic collection of mostly original compositions that once again blurred the lines between funk and jazz. All selections have been newly remastered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Archway Theme \u003cbr\u003e1.2 The Golden Striker \u003cbr\u003e1.3 It Never Entered My Mind \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Oliphant Gesang \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Indonesia \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Sounds at the Archway \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Step Da Co Eel Waltz (Stepdacoel) \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Ed's Blues\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
