Artie Shaw and His Gramercy Five - Sequence in Music (Verve). With the orange and yellow label, as shown. This was apparently only used in Verve's 2000 series, which seemed to be designed to have wider pop appeal than their hard-core jazz issues. The orange label was later replaced by a blue one. In any case, this is an excellent album; Tal Farlow and Hank Jones on board.

George Lewis - At Dixieland Hall (Nobility). A really nice late (1965) George Lewis album. Louis Nelson is one of my favorite New Orleans trombonists, and the relatively modern Joshua Willis sounds very good - almost like a three-way cross between Bobby Hackett, Dizzy Gillespie, and Bunk Johnson. Lewis is not as strong as in his younger days, but is in fairly good form. I like it.

Sabby Lewis - Boston Bounce (Phoenix). Six 1946 studio sides by Sabby's eight-piece Boston band, two 1944 New York airchecks by a full big band, and a 1944 jam session on side two. Paul Gonsalves, Big Nick Nicholas, Freddie Webster, and Ray Perry are on hand on various cuts, and there's a Tadd Dameron arrangement. JImmy Tyler is very impressive on alto sax. Hadn't spun this for awhile - nice stuff.
