The record

The date carries two Farmers -- Art on trumpet, Addison on bass -- with Gigi Gryce's alto opposite the horn and a writing credit to his name as well. Freddie Redd and Art Taylor complete the quintet. Four tracks on a Prestige ten-inch from 1955, PRLP 209, and 'Social Call' is the one that lingers after the arm lifts.
