The record
Gillespie sings as well as plays here, and the supporting cast is unusually crowded -- the credits carry two bassists, two drummers and two pianists, alongside Don Byas on tenor, Hubert Fol on alto, Bill Tamper on trombone and Humberto Canto on congas. Eight sides on a Blue Note ten-inch with a Paul Bacon cover.
