    Great pressing. My copy has a few marks on it, and therefore it has a few pops in it.
    The record used to be at a radio station, and the label is marked up as well. I would love to know what station it was played at? The label reads "BUBB" hand written on both sides. On Side A there's a '#57' written on it and a yellow label with a printed black 7 stuck to it. Let me know if you recognize it or what radio station it's from?
    Smith is at his soulful best. Turrentine and Burrell shine. B3 One O'Clock Jump is fantatsic example for all 3 of them.
