Nice Charleston video here. Hal McKusick is on tenor.

[Edit to add that the rest of musicians are, according to McKusick:

Phil Olivella, clarinet

Bernie Privin, trumpet

Frank Rehak, trombone

HM on tenor...

Most likely Hank Jones on piano, Specs Powell, drums, Sam Shoobe or Trigger Alpert on bass.]
