Description
Blue Note is loved, revered, respected and recognized as one of the most important record labels in the history of popular music. Jimmy Smith was the master of the mighty Hammond organ; and this 1958 album shows off his talents in the company of other greats including Lee Morgan, Curtis Fuller, Lou Donaldson/George Coleman, Tina Brooks, Kenny Burrell/Eddie McFadden and Art Blakey/DonaldBailey.

A visible scuff can be seen on Side 2 Track 1, but does not appear to adversely affect the overall sound.
Sleeve Grading: G Scuffing around edges with slight nicks and tearing, discoloration of notes side due to usage and age.
