Even though the liner notes states that Bob Cranshaw is playing the bass on the album Open House, that's not correct. Johnny Hammond Smith is providing the bass lines himself on Open House.

John Robert "Johnny Hammond" Smith (December 16, 1933 – June 4, 1997) was an American soul jazz and hard bop organist. Born in Louisville, Kentucky, he was a renowned player of the Hammond B-3 organ so earning "Hammond" as a nickname, which also avoided his being confused with jazz guitarist Johnny Smith.
