Bobby Timmons is one of those jazz men whose legacy has been better remembered for his compositions rather than him as a player or band leader.
I am no Bobby Timmons expert but what I've heard from the man himself, I really, really like.
When it hits the bridges though, all rhythm stops and Timmons comes dancing in with a beautiful melodic line that gets me giddy everytime I hear it.

Bobby Timmons became so famous for the gospel and funky blues clichés in his solos and compositions that his skills as a Bud Powell-inspired bebop player have been long forgotten.
For Blakey (who he was with during 1958-1959), Timmons wrote the classic "Moanin'" and, after joining Adderley in 1959, his song "This Here" (followed later by "Dat Dere") became a big hit; it is little wonder that Adderley was distressed when, in 1960, Timmons decided to return to The Jazz Messengers.
Timmons, who was already recording as a leader for Riverside, soon formed his own trio but was never able to gain the commercial success that his former bosses enjoyed.

Timmons was born in 1935 in Philadelphia and after emerging from the Philadelphia jazz scene, he moved to New York where in 1954 he worked with Kenny Dorham (1956, he appeared on the Blue Note/ Dorham Classic At the Cafe Bohemia), Chet Baker, Sonny Stitt and the Maynard Ferguson Big Band.

 Bobby Timmons - Jazz Piano - Jazz - Music - www.real.com
Pianist Bobby Timmons developed a unique, Hard Bop influenced style of piano playing, known at the time as “soul jazz,” which departed from the delicate, sophisticated tickling of Bop in favor of a percussive, high-spirited and pounding attack.
At the same time, Timmons enjoyed a prolific solo career, recording primarily in trios and quartets.
Timmons plays in a rollicking, gospel and blues inflected idiom, which features simple, shout-like melodies, hard-hitting riffs using all ten fingers, and chunky, full-bodied chord voicings.

Pianist Bobby Timmons, who made his name as a writer and invaluable part of the rhythm section in the Art Blakey and Cannonball Adderley bands of the late '50s and early '60s, is a different proposition in his role here as a leader.
Still, with Timmons in the company of bassist Ron Carter and drummer Albert Heath, both in their early twenties at the time of this 1961 recording, there would seem to have been potential for great things -- something beyond the sum of the parts.

 Bobby Timmons - The Best of Bobby Timmons | The Mix
Pianist/composer Bobby Timmons is known today, if at all, as the composer of some of the most memorable, hummable, funky soul-jazz tunes on the planet -- and that achievement alone should have put him in the jazz hall of fame.
Unfortunately, the soul-jazz tag doomed Timmons' reputation with critics who could only hear things through bop or avant-garde ears; their neglect contributed to a career slide that ended with his early death from alcoholism at only 38.
As it happens, a good deal of what made Timmons tick can be summed up on one disc, which this item does unusually well.

 BOBBY TIMMONS - SOUL TIME
Pianist Bobby Timmons did the bulk of his recording as a leader for Riverside in a trio setting.
This album was the exception, as it adds the pungent lyricism of Blue Mitchell's trumpet to the deeply soulful rhythm section of Timmons, Sam Jones, and Art Blakey.
Timmons had recently left Cannonball Adderley's quintet to return to Blakey's Jazz Messengers, and was clearly at a peak as both player and composer.

 BOBBY TIMMONS - MOANIN' BLUES
As a pianist and composer, as well as a member of groups led by Art Blakey and Cannonball Adderley, Bobby Timmons was at the forefront of the soul jazz movement of the late Fifties and early Sixties.
The deep soulfulness that marked Timmons's music was no doubt the product of his having grown up playing organ at a Philadelphia church pastored by his grandfather, yet a pronounced blues sensibility was never far from the surface.
Among the 11 Timmons compositions in this collection of blues oriented performances are his three most famous: "Moanin'," "This Here," and his original recording of "Dat Dere" later given lyrics by Oscar Brown, Jr..

 Bobby Timmons Trio - The Bobby Timmons Trio in Person: Recorded Live at the Village Vanguard | The Bear Rocks
Pianist Bobby Timmons, who made his name as a writer and invaluable part of the rhythm section in the Art Blakey and Cannonball Adderley bands of the late '50s and early '60s, is a different proposition in his role here as a leader.
Although able and energetic, Timmons demonstrates little taste for adventure and, consequently, can sustain himself in the spotlight only intermittently.
Still, with Timmons in the company of bassist Ron Carter and drummer Albert Heath, both in their early twenties at the time of this 1961 recording, there would seem to have been potential for great things -- something beyond the sum of the parts.

 Bobby (2006)
I saw the movie "Bobby" as part of the Vienna International Film Festival last week and thought it was an incredibly powerful film.
The later two, combined with Lindsey Lohan as a woman marrying to save a man's life, serve as the heart of the movie and bring a well-balanced view of many of the hot issues of the day.
You can read whatever you want to into the political agenda of the movie, but in the end this movie is a tribute to Robert F. Kennedy and his time.

The idea for successful Christmas music adaptations has always been about utilizing the formats of such traditional pieces as a launching pad for substantial jazz performances and both Timmons and Patterson do that in a way that allows their own personalities to rise to the surface.
When it comes to pianist Bobby Timmons, most consider his main contribution to the music to be a gospel-tinged/funky outlook that ushered in a whole genre of soul-jazz that is still in favor among today's younger set.
It's a funky vamp that launches “Winter Wonderland” and over several choruses Timmons and bassist Butch Warren get to speak their piece, supported ever so tastefully by drummer Walter Perkins.

Sweet And Soulful Sounds, from 1962, is a most atypical record for Bobby Timmons.
Long thought of only as a funky piano player in the style that Ramsey Lewis would later make commercially successful, Timmons could also play prettily, as he does on this ballad-heavy set.
There's a little funk here; the up-tempo "Another Live One" sounds like a potential Cannonball Adderley hit (Timmons, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Roy Mccurdy were all once and future Adderley accompanists).
