The record
Django Reinhardt is in the guitar chair, which is the first thing to say -- Paris sides under Dickie Wells's name, with Bill Coleman, Bill Dillard and Shad Collins on trumpets, Howard Johnson's alto and Sam Allen at the piano. Coleman is credited on vocals as well. Prestige gathered them for reissue as PR 7593, Dan Morgenstern writing the notes.
