Swingin' On Broadway - Jonah Jones

Just My Luck
Swingin' On Broadway
Hit Songs From Great Broadway Shows
The Jonah Jones Quartet
Capitol Records T963
1958

From the back cover: For Jonah Jones, trumpeter and vocalist, has a way with a tune. He treats it with an understanding for the essence of the melody itself. But he is above all a swinging musician, and the sound of his quartet – rakish, driving, jaunty – is unlike any around today.

After an almost legendary career – from riverboat entertainer to toast of European society – Jonah Jones has reached the status of major musician, and his appearances throughout this country, Canada and Europe have become standout attractions.
