REVIEW   On this, his third album, Jimmy Smith's initial fire continues to burn. With a well judged set that combines a blues and a ballad, as well as several crackling fast pieces, he was demonstrating to the world both his and his instrument's versatility. Of note, other than Jimmy, is Schwartz's playing on Judo Mambo where he employs a technique that seems to prefigure the wah wah guitar effect that was not in use at that time (the first known use in a recording is credited to Chet Atkins in 1961).
