Two Altos is an album by American saxophonists Art Pepper and Sonny Red. The four standards which appear on the album were recorded in Los Angeles with West Coast-jazz musicians between 1952 and 1954, whilst the two originals were recorded at Van Gelder Studio, in 1957. Regent assembled the material and released it in 1959. The album is a jazz rarity and was reissued on CD only once, in Japan in 1992.
