An excellent set that brings together Fats Navarro's recordings for Savoy – late 40s sides that were always poorly packaged and annotated on record, which are compiled here wonderfully,
with great notes, and a few unissued tracks! Players include Leo Parker, Kenny Dorham,
Sonny Stitt, Ernie Henry, Tadd Dameron, Kenny Clarke,
Art Blakey, and Charlie Rouse – and the set's got a huge amount of titles, including "Boppin A Riff", "Fat Boy", "Everything's Cool", "Webb City", "Fracture", "Calling Dr Jazz", "Red
Pepper", "Spinal", "Fat Girl", "Ice Freezes Red", "A Bebop Carol", and "The Tadd Walk".
(Mid 70s issue. Cover has minimal wear and a promo stamp.)
