AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "Tenor saxophonist Ben Webster and trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison, both veterans of the swing era (although associated with different orchestras), had long wanted to record a full album together. The results, a swinging quintet set with pianist Hank Jones, bassist George Duvivier, and drummer Clarence Johnston, are quite rewarding ... Nothing unexpected occurs but the melodic music is quite enjoyable".[3]

Personnel

gollark: No, boot the computer as normal, and once it BOOTS UP swap out the EEPROM.
gollark: Put the blank EEPROM in a computer or something (remove the existing one, it can work without it, just not boot), run `flash [code to put on the EEPROM]`.
gollark: Flash an EEPROM.

gollark: Firefox seems to block popups pretty well, though that may also be my adblocker (uBløck Origin, the best one).
