"Anyone wanting to know what the very essence of jazz is, should listen to this recording. There are moments in recorded jazz history that stand above even the best, and this is one. It truly ranks with the Billie Holiday-Teddy Wilson recordings of the '30's, and no recorded session swings more. A must!"
A delightful set of great tunes and wonderful solos

"Dickenson is a superb trombonist, inexcusably overlooked in contemporary opinion, and he is playing very well here. These sessions, put together by John Hammond, which ought to be enough of a recommendation by itself, feature also Ruby Braff, playing exquisitely, and Edmond Hall. A good bet."
