I admit that I like almost any recording by Roy Eldridge, but I like the period after the war, but before the fifties. You get the wild exhibitions, the low moaning sounds; in short you get almost all his styles with this recording. My personal favorites are "jump through the window", and the demo for a new record (that was not picked up) "Christopher Columbus". Music missing from this disc can be found on Chronological Classics 1945-1947". But I bought, because it has a lot music in the same place.
