Friends since 1944, pianist Al Haig and guitarist Jimmy Raney were group mates in the Stan Getz Quintet of the early 50's and featured on the classic recordings made at the Storyville Club in Boston. Subsequently Getz, Haig and Raney teamed up again in the Choice Studio in March 1975 for this memorable display of talents which made them so revered by jazz lovers worldwide. Also on the date were ex-Ahmad Jamal sidemen bassist Jamel Nasser and drummer Frank Gant.

One of the finest pianists of the bop era (and one who learned from Bud Powell's innovations quite early), Al Haig was quite busy during two periods of his career but unfortunately was pretty obscure in the years between. After serving in the Coast Guard (playing in bands during 1942-1944) and freelancing around Boston, Haig worked steadily with Dizzy Gillespie (1945-1946), Charlie Parker (1948-1950), and Stan Getz (1949-1951); and was on many recordings, mostly as a sideman (including some classic Diz and Bird sessions) but also as a leader for Spotlite, Dawn, and Prestige. However (other than little-known dates in 1954 for Esoteric, Swing, and Period), Haig did not lead any more albums until 1974. He played fairly often during the 1951-1973 period, but was generally overlooked. That changed during his last decade, when he was finally recognized as a bop giant and recorded for Spotlite, Choice, SeaBreeze, Interplay, and several Japanese and European labels.
