• These two albums on one CD, featuring Buck Clayton and Buddy Tate, were originally released on the Swingville label, in 1960 : ‘Buck & Buddy’ and its sequel, ‘Buck & Buddy Blow the Blues’ are unique for being the only quintet studio albums the two made together.
• Clayton and Tate began playing together as far back as 1939. They met in the Count Basie orchestra, a band they’d both remain with for nearly a decade. Although they would continue playing and recording together extensively well into the mid-1970s.
• On both works they are backed by the outstanding pianist Sir Charles Thompson and bassist Gene Ramey, while the drum chair is alternately filled by Mousey Alexander and Gus Johnson. A different version of Thou Swell, recorded in 1957 by both Clayton and Tate, has been added as a bonus.
• Total Time: 78:34 mins. - 14 tracks - includes 16-page booklet.
