The record
Art Hodes at the piano with Max Kaminsky's trumpet and Rod Cless on clarinet, and -- worth a second look -- Ray Conniff on trombone. The credits carry two bassists, Bob Haggart and Sid Jacobs, alongside Jack Bland's guitar and Danny Alvin's drums. Eight well-worn tunes, 'Maple Leaf Rag' and 'Doctor Jazz' among them, on a ten-inch Blue Note, BLP 7004.
