Jazz in History IV

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

CD1 also credits Lester Young with "(cl)(ts)" for tracks 1–4, but that is not added since it might mean clarinet on some tracks and tenor saxophone on some tracks (or that he actually plays both).

(Similarly Freddie Green is credited with "(g)(vcl)" for the same tracks, although there is only song on one of the tracks.)
