Personnel

2003 Remaster

This recording was re-issued in 2003 as a CD on the Capitol Jazz label and was described as 'Newly restored from the original studio session tapes'. It was a remixed and remastered version of the original 3-track tapes. The remaster also contained two additional tracks from the studio session, but not included on the original vinyl release - 'Nobody's Heart' (Rodgers and Hart) as track 13 and 'Don't Ever Leave Me' (Oscar Hammerstein II, Jerome Kern) as track 14. The description on the CD names different players from those noted above for the 1959 vinyl version. The personnel are given as:

Other recording and production information is given on the cover notes as follows:

1. Produced by David Cavanaugh, recorded on May 28-30, 1959
2. Re-issue produced by Cy Godfrey and Michael Cuscuna
3. Remixed from the original 3-track tapes and remastered in 24 bit by Ron McMaster.

There is also a descriptive note, explaining the subterfuge of claiming that the original issue was of a live recording:

This album was originally released with overdubbed applause and background ambience and issued as recorded at the 1959 Miami Disk Jockey's (sic) Convention. It was actually recorded in the studio shortly before or after the actual appearance and is presented here in its pure state and greatly improved fidelity. Tracks 13 and 14, recorded at these sessions, were not included on the original LP.
