The record

Trombone against tenor, Bennie Green set opposite Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, on two sides of a 1951 Prestige 78 -- a pairing with plenty of grain to it. 'Whirl-A-Licks' and 'Bennie's Pennies' are all you get. The credits name only Green and Davis, so whoever kept time behind them goes undocumented here.
