Description
In the spring of 1953, right before his Blue Note Records recordings, the late, lamented trumpet genius was a featured soloist in Tadd Dameron's band. These recordings set the jazz world on its ear and Brownie's fame spread beyond musicians' circles. In the fall he toured in France and Sweden with Lionel Hampton's orchestra, capturing the jazz audience on the Continent and leaving a legacy of exceptional recordings, including the ones heard here with Art Farmer and the Swedish All-Stars.

Jacket is perfect … tiny bit of shelf wear … no splits, tears, writing … very well cared for … “Not for Sale” stamped on back right hand corner … Original 447 West 50th St. Address on jacket and label.
LP is VG++ to Near Mint … a few pressing flaws on side B, but I’m being critical … This have seen little play over the years … Black and yellow deep groove labels are perfect … Exceptional condition.
Low reserve. A real piece of jazz history.
