Jimmy Smith's Home Cookin'

Video Tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8bpuBGNR6I

Description: Jimmy Smith’s *Home Cookin’* bottles the warmth of a Harlem supper club into one smoky, blue-toned frame on West 126th Street. Standing near 271 W 126th St, you can picture his Hammond B-3 lines spilling out of a neighborhood bar, mixing with the chatter and clatter of early ’60s Harlem evenings. The cover’s casual sidewalk pose hints that this soul-jazz feast was meant for the block as much as for the hi-fi, turning the street itself into an extension of the organ bench. This Harlem corner is one flavorful stop in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
