Ten new titles have just been released in the ORIGINAL JAZZ CLASSICS series

Three from the Pablo catalog: “OSCAR PETERSON & JON FADDIS" (1975), one of a series of duo recordings Peterson made with trumpeters (including Faddis's mentor Dizzy Gillespie); COUNT BASIE's “Fancy Pants," recorded with his orchestra in December 1983, less than a year before his death; and “Eximious" by the JOE PASS TRIO, featuring Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen and Martin Drew (1982). . .

Two from Prestige: tenor saxophonist HOUSTON PERSON's “Blue Odyssey" (1968), with Curtis Fuller, Pepper Adams, Cedar Walton, Bob Cranshaw, and Frankie Jones; and DEXTER GORDON's “Tangerine," comprised of two stellar 1972 sessions (Freddie Hubbard is heard on a bonus track). . .
