This would be the Urania album? A typically fine session from the 1950's, not terribly rare. Try to avoid the stereo version, which is rechanneled.

Yes, it's the Urania album and it's Kenny Kersey playing organ on some tracks, piano on the others.

I have the FreshSound reissue.

The Hawk is in splendid form on that session.His ballad playing (on 'I'll Never Be The Same' and 'What's New' in particular) is really topnotch!
