Ann, Man! by Ann Richards, released on ATCO in 1961.

Review by Scott Yanow

...her most intimate date, a quartet set with trumpeter Jack Sheldon, guitarist Barney Kessel, bassist Red Callender, and drummer Larry Bunker....Richards shows off her versatility and sensitivity on this well-rounded set, swinging lightly and singing with restrained emotions.

The Hunt is a 1977 jazz album of performances from 1947 by a nonet featuring saxophonists Dexter Gordon and Wardell Gray. The title song is referenced in the book On the Road by Jack Kerouac.

"They ate voraciously as Dean, sandwich in hand, stood bowed and jumping before the big phonograph, listening to a wild bop record I had just bought called “The Hunt,” with Dexter Gordon and Wardell Gray blowing their tops before a screaming audience that gave the record fantastic frenzied volume."

Jack Kerouac - On The Road Part Two Chapter 1

"To the wild sounds of Dexter Gordon and Wardell Gray blowing “The Hunt,” Dean and I played catch with Marylou over the couch."
