The record
A late-'50s Paris date led from the kit, capturing the city's homegrown swing scene at a moment when French rhythm sections were coming fully into their own alongside visiting Americans. Drummer-led but band-driven, it's a solid snapshot of Left Bank swing rather than a leader's showcase.
