• Classic 1950’s mainstream led by two stars : trombonist Jack Teagarden and trumpeter Bobby Hackett.
• These two jazz greats join forces on this release, which combines two original LPs : “Coast Concert” (Los Angeles 1955) and “Jazz Ultimate” (New York 1957).
• These sessions are among Teagarden’s best work, and with Hackett also in tremendous form, the interplay is full of melody, virtuosity and conviction.
• The sidemen on these 23 tracks include Peanuts Hucko, Ernie Carceres, Nick Fatool, Billy Bauer, Abe Lincoln, Don Owens & Gene Schroeder.
• This title was previously re-issued on the Lonehill label (LHJ10113) in 2004.
