Kai Winding & J.J. Johnson = The Great Kai & J.J.
Since the last appearance of Kai Winding & J.J. Johnson, the pair broke up on good terms, and this is from their first reunion in 1960.
They're joined by Bill Evans (piano), Paul Chambers or Tommy Williams (bass), and Art Taylor or Roy Haynes (drums).
Classically RvG sounding, and very enjoyable.

Attached: 1 image Kai Winding and J.J. Johnson - K + J.J. Another little gem from Dad's collection - and something I haven't encountered before: what looks to be a quintet led by...two trombonists. Anyway, this mono 1955 Bethelem "East Coast Jazz" release bops right through a set of standards in fine style. Always interesting to see how the labels would try to come up with striking images to grab your attention in the racks, too. #nowplaying #jazz #bop #kaiwinding #jjjohnson #trombone #vinyl
