The Great Kai & J.J (Acoustic Sounds) music-product and Julius RodriguezThe first ever Impulse release (catalog number A 1) and known as one of the best efforts of Kai Winding and J. J. Johnson, this 1960 session features a collection of jazz heavyweights, including Bill Evans (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), and Art Taylor & Roy Haynes (drums). Evans playing, in particular, raises this album beyond a mere Kai & J. J. and spotlights the group as a whole. Verves Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and
