Vibraphonist Red Norvo was among the most flexible of improvisers from his generation. On this Bluebird CD, Norvo is heard with three very different groups. He interacts with trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison, tenor saxophonist Ben Webster and pianist Jimmy Rowles in a swing-oriented sextet; their performances are highlighted by the memorable "Just a Mood." In addition, Norvo plays four songs that have the word "Blue" in their titles with a quintet that is an outgrowth of his trio of a few years earlier (this group consists of flutist Buddy Collette, guitarist Tal Farlow, Monty Budwig or Red Callender on bass and drummer Chico Hamilton) and four "Rose" songs with the who's who of West Coast Jazz: trumpeter Shorty Rogers, clarinetist Jimmy Giuffre, pianist Pete Jolly, Farlow, Callender and drummer Larry Bunker. No matter what the setting, Norvo fits in quite comfortably and the consistent high-quality of the formerly rare music makes this a highly recommended set to bop collectors.

Interactúa con el trompetista Harry "Sweets" Edison, el saxofonista tenor Ben Webster y el pianista Jimmy Rowles en un sexteto orientado al swing. sus actuaciones se destacan por el memorable "Just a Mood". Además, Norvo toca cuatro canciones que tienen la palabra "Azul" en sus títulos con un quinteto que es una consecuencia de su trío de algunos años antes (este grupo está formado por el flautista Buddy Collette, el guitarrista Tal Farlow, Monty Budwig o Red Callender). en el bajo y el baterista Chico Hamilton) y cuatro canciones "Rose" con quién es quién de West Coast Jazz: el trompetista Shorty Rogers, el clarinetista Jimmy Giuffre, el pianista Pete Jolly, Farlow, Callender y el baterista Larry Bunker. No importa cuál sea la configuración, Norvo se adapta de manera muy cómoda y la alta calidad constante de la música rara vez hace que este sea un conjunto muy recomendable para coleccionistas de bop.
