Rare registrazioni, scomparse nel tempo e ritrovate di recente, del grandissimo sassofonista jazz. Si tratta di brani dal vivo, registrati in varie locations tra la fine degli anni quaranta ed il 1954. Versioni inedite, anche di classici come A Night in Tunisia, oppure My Funny Valentine e Salt Peantus. Bella confezione, ben registrato, edito dalla Cleopatra di Los Angeles. Un marchio di garanzia.
