The atypical, band-leading partnership between trombonists Kai Winding and J.J. Johnson was at the peak of its fame at the time the band left for this European tour –with both musicians also very successful in their own right. Although 8 musicians are featured here, they never perform as an octet on these recordings but took turns in different small groups, creating cool and intimate atmospheres.
All the tracks on this 3CD set of the J.J. Johnson & Kai Winding All Stars on their 1958 European Tour are previously unissued in any format. 38 tracks and more than three hours of never before heard music.
The tour was billed as “Jazz from Carnegie Hall”. The two masters of bop trombone - with a truly all-star band : Lee Konitz, Zoot Sims, Phineas Newborn Jr. or Red Garland, Oscar Pettiford and Kenny Clarke - are featured in concert in Stockholm, Berlin, Munich and Manchester. Including an equally rare bonus track of Sims, Newborn, Pettiford and Clarke only - at Domicile Club, Munich.
Total time: 73:08+74:30+58:56 min.

Considered by many to be the finest jazz trombonist of all time, J.J. Johnson somehow transferred the innovations of Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie to his more awkward instrument, playing with such speed and deceptive ease that at one time some listeners assumed he was playing valve (rather than slide) trombone. Johnson toured with the territory bands of Clarence Love and Snookum Russell during 1941-1942, and then spent 1942-1945 with Benny Carter's big band. He made his recording debut with Carter (taking a solo on "Love for Sale" in 1943), and played at the first JATP concert (1944). Johnson also had plenty of solo space during his stay with Count Basie's Orchestra (1945-1946). During 1946-1950, he played with all of the top bop musicians, including Charlie Parker (with whom he recorded in 1947), the Dizzy Gillespie big band, Illinois Jacquet (1947-1949), and the Miles Davis Birth of the Cool Nonet. His own recordings from the era included such sidemen as Bud Powell and a young Sonny Rollins. Johnson, who also recorded with the Metronome All-Stars, played with Oscar Pettiford (1951) and Miles Davis (1952), but then was outside of music, working as a blueprint inspector for two years (1952-1954). His fortunes changed when, in August 1954, he formed a two-trombone quintet with Kai Winding that became known as Jay and Kai and was quite popular during its two years.
After Johnson and Winding went their separate ways (they would later have a few reunions), Johnson led a quintet that often included Bobby Jaspar. He began to compose ambitious works, starting with 1956's "Poem for Brass," and including "El Camino Real" and a feature for Dizzy Gillespie, "Perceptions"; his "Lament" became a standard. Johnson worked with Miles Davis during part of 1961-1962, led some more small groups of his own, and by the late '60s was kept busy writing television and film scores. J.J. Johnson was so famous in the jazz world that he kept on winning Downbeat polls in the 1970s, even though he was not playing at all. However, starting with a Japanese tour in 1977, Johnson gradually returned to a busy performance schedule, leading a quintet in the 1980s that often featured Ralph Moore. In the mid-'90s, he remained at the top of his field, but by the late '90s and early into the 2000s, the legendary musician fell ill with prostate cancer, and sadly took his own life on February 4, 2001.
