• In these two albums, Dave Pell presents swinging memories of the bands—small in size, but grand in stature—that traced the history of the jazz combo and accounted for some of the greatest hit recordings of their times

• Following a set of authentic re-creations of tunes made famous by groups such as those of John Kirby, Artie Shaw, Lester Young, Gerry Mulligan, Benny Goodman, Miles Davis and Shorty Rogers, Pell exchanges his sax for a clarinet to lead a Kirby-inspired sextet featuring Benny Carter
