A thoroughly enjoyable compilation, although including Lionel Hampton as a "singer" is certainly stretching the boundaries of that word's meaning.  If you've never heard "Bon Bon" -- and likely few of the folks frequenting this board spend hours spinning Jan Savitt records -- then give this a listen.  Wow!  This is some superbly fluid scat singing.

More about Bon Bon, Jan Savitt and this particular recording can be found here.

Don Patterson, Booker Ervin, Houston Person - Legends of Acid Jazz: Just Friends (Prestige)
Just picked up this CD recently.  The cuts with Booker Ervin are terrific.  No surprise, I guess. ;)
