Smithville is the second album by American trumpeter Louis Smith recorded in 1958. It was Smith's final album released by Blue Note label.
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars and stated "Stylistically, there are no surprises here -- this is mainstream bop and hard bop, comprised of original and contemporary bop numbers, as well as standards... It's a first-rate hard bop set that deserves wider distribution than it has received".
