The record
Two tenors, Al Cohn and Zoot Sims, plus Sonny Truitt's trombone stacked behind Miles Davis, with John Lewis at the piano and Kenny Clarke on drums. Four titles is all a ten-inch will hold: 'Tasty Pudding', 'Floppy', 'Willie The Wailer', 'For Adults Only'. Cohn wrote the book, as the title says. Ira Gitler contributed the notes.
