Tenor saxophonist Georgie Auld led many terrific groups. Ten years ago, I posted about his 1940s and early '50s ensembles (go here). Today, a 12-inch gem: Georgie Auld Quintet Plays the Winners. Recorded for Philips in Hollywood in April 1963, Auld's quintet featured Frank Rosolino (tb), Georgie Auld (ts), Lou Levy (p). Leroy Vinnegar (b) and Mel Lewis (d). Levy is on fire throughout and Auld swings like mad.
