• Harry 'Sweets' Edison(t), Johnny Hodges (as), Duke Ellington (p), Les Spann (g), Sam Jones, Al Hall (b), Jo Jones (d)

• One of the most thoroughly relaxed, conversational jazz sessions have recorded. Ellington fanciers will be well rewarded for there are many passages of Duke' s unusual and charming solo improvisations. Hodges carries most of the melodic statements of well-known blues standards but gets in his share of ad lib choruses along with the swinging trumpet of Harry Sweets Edison

• Includes three bonus tracks from the companion album "Side by Side"
