Various: Signature Songs
ByAmong the truly unique offerings are some star-studded live shots of Clark Terry’s ingeniously impeded "Mumbles" and Lionel Hampton’s moaning and moving "Flyin’ Home." In the end, it is hard to say which is the greater disappointmentthat the album is not filled with the most signature versions of some of these songs or that it is so short.
