1967 studio album by Bobby Timmons
Got to Get It! is an album by American jazz pianist Bobby Timmons recorded in 1967 and released on the Milestone label.[ 1]
The Allmusic review by Jason Ankeny awarded the album 3 stars stating "Purists may blanch, but Bobby Timmons' Milestone label debut Got to Get It! is an otherwise incendiary soul-jazz date informed by an irresistible freewheeling wit, absent from the pianist's more conventionally noteworthy efforts".[ 2]
