Nights At The Roundtable - Earl Bostic - 1952
Some Earl Bostic tonight. One of that illustrious generation of honking sax players who also made the effortless transition from Jazz to Jump Blues and brought a Who's Who of Jazz luminaries along for the ride. This track, the pop standard Moonglow, done in unmistakable Bostic fashion, was recorded in New York on April 2, 1952 and featured Joe Mitchell on Trumpet, John Coltrane on Tenor-sax, Ike Isaacs on Bass and Charles "Specs" Wright on drums.
