Bethlehem sometimes marred Burt Goldblatt's cover shots with overlaid text . For instance , this cover also exists with " The Thinking Man's Music" scrawled across it .

Now that's a GREAT album title, cover, etc...I want it! :g

Not sure you have this one, or if you like mp3's - but you can buy "Mr. Bojangles" over at the i-tunes store for $9.99.

Among those smoking are Charles Mingus, Rex Stewart, Lester Young (cigarette not seen), MaryLou Williams, Stuff Smith, Coleman Hawkins.

Also Willie The Lion Smith who was enjoying a cigar while sitting on another stairs and was out of camera range!
