The record
A late-'58 Metrojazz curiosity built around the Mitchell surname rather than any single leader, with Whitey and Red Mitchell anchoring a west-meets-east date alongside Blue Mitchell's trumpet. Pepper Adams' baritone and André Previn's piano add real weight to what's otherwise a loose, good-humored session from the label's brief run.
