The record

Charlie Christian's name in the credits is what moves this one -- alongside Carl Kress on guitar, Teddy Wilson at the piano and Red Norvo's vibraphone behind Edmond Hall's clarinet. Two bassists are listed, and Meade "Lux" Lewis appears without an instrument beside his name. Blue Note BLP 5026, a 1953 ten-inch with a Gil Mellé cover.
