Pee Wee Russell & Coleman Hawkins

Product variants

This superb recording features a 'reunion' of two of jazz's finest - Tenor-saxophonist Coleman Hawkins and clarinetist Pee Wee Russell. The two revisit 'If I Could Be with You,' a song they first recorded together in a classic version back in 1929.

Russell was beginning to perform much more modern material than the Dixieland music associated with the Eddie Condon players and on this set (which also features trumpeter Emmett Berry, valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer, pianist Nat Pierce, bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Jo Jones), he plays a couple of Duke Ellington tunes, two originals and "Tin Tin Deo." Hawkins is also in fine form and this somewhat surprising program is quite successful.

Recorded by Candid Records A&R man and founder Nat Hentoff at the Nola Penthouse Studios in New York City in 1961.
