• On CD for the first time ever, the complete recorded collaborations of Bobby Hackett and Zoot Sims, originally issued on two albums titled ‘Strike Up the Band’ (1974) and ‘Creole Cookin’’ (1967)

• Personnel includes : Bob Brookmeyer, Pepper Adams, Hank Jones, Dave McKenna, Mel Lewis, Joe Farrell, Bob Wilber, Richard Davis & Bucky Pizzarelli.

• Total Time: 71:20 - 21 tracks - Includes 12-page booklet

• Although both musicians enjoyed long and fruitful careers, Bobby Hackett (1915-1976) and Zoot Sims (1925-1985) would only collaborate in a recording studio during the making of the two albums reissued here. No live recordings of them playing together are known to exist, with the sole exception of a short version of “When the Saint Go Marching In” from the soundtrack of the 1957 Timex All Stars TV Show, on which neither can be heard clearly.
