This LP is a classic EmArcy recording of Dinah Washington with Clark Terry, Clifford Brown, and Maynard Ferguson, recorded at a live jam session in Los Angeles on 8/14/54 The LP was released early in 1955 This is one of the CLASSIC jazz recordings of ALL TIME!!! Maynard's solo effort on "Summertime" alone is worth the price of the LP

DINAH WASHINGTON, DINAH JAMS 1954 -- Trip Jazz TLP-5500
This LP is a 1970s re-issue pressing of the classic EmArcy recording of Dinah Washington with Clark Terry, Clifford Brown, and Maynard Ferguson, recorded at a live jam session in Los Angeles on 8/14/54 Trip Jazz put out these great re-issue pressings because the originals are so hard to find They're really outstanding pressings If you can't find the original from 1955, this is a great substitute Plus, it's going to sound better than the 1955 version due to the advances in pressing technology The covers on these are black, so most copies will have surface or record ring wear
