Got a Good Thing Goin'

Got a Good Thing Goin is an album by American organist Big John Patton recorded in 1966 and released on the Blue Note label.

The AllMusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4½ stars and stated "Fans of hard bop may find the songs a little too simple, but hot, up-tempo soul-jazz rarely comes any better than it does on Got a Good Thing Goin."
