About this release
Jazz Musts
This release contains the complete original Kenny Burrell LP Bluesin' Around (Columbia FC38507). In addition, all existing songs from the same sessions that weren't included on the original LP plus all but one of the existing alternate takes from the dates. The music is presented here chronologically, in order to avoid mixing the personnel from the different sessions.
Thanks to snobb for the addition
