Illinois Jacquet's Swing's the Thing on 180g LP. Remastered and Transferred from Analog Tapes. Pressed at QRP and Packaged in Deluxe Gatefold Packaging.

Originally recorded for the Clef label in 1956, Swing's the Thing features the tenor great in a stellar sextet with Roy Eldridge (trumpet), Jimmy Jones (piano), Herb Ellis (guitar), Ray Brown (bass) and Jo Jones (drums). While Jacquet's sessions as a leader may have been infrequent during this time, this session hits a magical mark with the six-song set being highlighted by the tracks "Las Vegas Blues," "Harlem Nocturne," and "Achtung."
