Over to Larry Kart. He's an expert on this one. :)

Could be the most West Coast album ever -- outrageously clever, cute-precious-complex, impeccably played. On one side of the LP  (six tunes per side) Shorty arranges three standards and Andre contributes three originals based on those standards; on the other side their roles are reversed. Back in the  later '50s when in a fit of rectitude I was purging my collection of much West Coast stuff in the name of my newfound passions -- Blakey, Rollins, Horace Silver, et al. -- I kept this one and I'm glad I did. It really is something else.

Ever since watching this sensational session by these two veterans of the Lionel Hampton Orchestra, I've been looking for a recording which features them both, and here's one:
