Ended Wednesday and welcomed Thursday with In My Solitude an album by saxophonist Willis Jackson which was recorded in 1961 and released on the Moodsville label
Willis "Gator" Jackson (April 25, 1932 – October 25, 1987) was an American jazz tenor saxophonist.
Born in Miami, Florida, Jackson joined Cootie Williams's band in 1948 as a teenager, and was part of it on and off until 1955.
Under his own name (Willis Jackson and His Orchestra) he recorded various rhythm-and-blues instrumentals for Atlantic Records. His most famous record for Atlantic is "Gator's Groove" (1952), with "Estrellita" as the B-side.
Jackson toured as leader of the backing band for singer Ruth Brown. Publicly they were married, but privately they never married but lived together from 1950 to 1955. Jackson joined Prestige Records in 1959, making a string of albums.. - Wikipedia

The Big Challenge is an album by trumpeter Cootie Williams and cornetist Rex Stewart, recorded in 1957 and released on the Jazztone label.
Scott Yanow of AllMusic states, "a fun and unusual Jazztone session. Six distinctive and very different veterans were teamed together ... the unique matchups are very successful. Each of the musicians has an opportunity to be featured and the tradeoffs are quite memorable. A colorful gem." - Wikipedia
