"Home Cookin'" comes from three sessions in 1958-59 featuring The Incredible Jimmy Smith in a quartet with tenor saxophonist Percy France, guitarist Kenny Burrell and drummer Donald Bailey, and is one of the most soulful albums ever recorded by the Hammond B3 organ virtuoso.

The band gives a soul-jazz symposium that includes tunes by Ma Rainey, Ray Charles and Jimmy McGriff along with original compositions by Smith and Burrell.

This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition was mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
