The record

Three tracks, and a front line of Lou Donaldson, Hank Mobley and Donald Byrd stacked over Jimmy Smith's organ with Art Blakey on drums and Eddie McFadden's guitar -- that is a lot of horn for an organ record. Blue Note BLP 1548 from 1957, Alfred Lion producing, Reid Miles on the cover and Francis Wolff's photograph, Ira Gitler on the notes.
