Warner Brothers Records 1959
This album is outstanding. West Coast cool jazz performed by Warren Barker and a group of uncredited but highly talented musicians. I have always wondered why the musicians have never been identified because there is some excellent piano, vibes and horn work on this album. The German CD reissue has excellent sound quality. I was listening to this album in 1959 and still listen to it in 2004. Henry Mancini created the private eye jazz style ("Peter Gunn") but Warren Barker added greatly to it with this album.
