Art Tatum & Roy Eldridge - Art Tatum & Roy Eldridge Quartet

Digitally remastered edition containing the complete original LP Art Tatum-Roy Eldridge Quartet, pairing the two stars with bassist John Simmons and drummer Alvin Stoller.

This was to be the last recorded reunion of the two leaders as Tatum died the following year. As a bonus to the eight tracks on the original album, the only two existing alternate takes from these sessions have been added. Also included are solo piano versions of all of the songs included on the quartet session with Eldridge (Tatum recorded these solo piano tracks for Granz between 1953-1955, which have been organized here in the same song order as the quartet date).
