The record
The credits carry two tenors -- Big Nick Nicholas and Eddie 'Lockjaw' Davis -- with Rudy Williams's baritone underneath and Bennie Green's trombone leading, over a rhythm section of Teddy Brannon, Tommy Potter and Art Blakey. That is a lot of horn for two 78 sides. Prestige put it out as 773 on shellac in 1952.
