John Jenkins With Kenny Burrell

Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Hackensack, New Jersey on August 11, 1957. #1-3, 6: master takes issued in stereo for the first time #4, 5: master takes in mono #7, 8: previously unissued partial alternate takes in stereo (see note) Although recorded in stereo, this session was never issued in that form. When an engineer attempted to make a stereo master, he used take 7 of "Sharon" and take 2 of "Chalumeau". Actually, the master of "Sharon" was an edited composite of takes 6 & 7 and "Chalumeau" used takes 2 & 1. Since he discarded the outtake reels, it is impossible to get a true stereo of the master take for each of these tunes. So we have included the monos and the surviving stereos which are partial masters/partial alternates. #1-6 originally issued in 1957 as [r3318190]. #7-8 bonus selections.
