Bill Russo first came to the attention of the jazz media in the late forties when he was leading an experimental rehearsal band in Chicago. His early attempts to present his music to the public were disappointing and resulted in neither critical nor popular acclaim.

This LP is the source the first ten tracks on this CD.
The musicians involved in this project were, I presume, all Chicago locals and the only ones familiar to me are the fluent trumpeter Gail Brockman, best remembered for his participation in early recordings by Gene Amnions, pianist Lloyd Lifton and bassist Max Wayne. …
