Nice that Fresh Sound reissued this. An excellent trio session (plus extra material). Legge was with Dizzy for a while, did a session or two with Mingus. . . he deserved a longer career and wider recognition.

Was quite a name when I was listening at the end of the fifties. And, of course, he's always been useful on Name Three People. :rolleyes:

Looks like this is the Vogue session leased to Blue Note.

As for Wade Legge having been with Dizzy, in fact this IS the Dizzy rhythm section of his 1953 French tour that also yielded various studio recordings as well as another live recording LP from a Salle Pleyel concert.
