These items were recorded for the WCBS-TV show Adventures in Jazz. Davis
plays only on the "Big Foot" jam, a bop-vs.-Dixieland duel with Kaminsky. His range
is impressive here, just as it is on the recordings a couple months later from the
Paris Festival International de Jazz.
At the time Davis was a member of the Tadd Dameron Tentet, in the midst of a month-long
engagement (February 12-March 16) at the Royal Roost on Broadway.
I have listed the date that appears in most discographies, March 4. This performance
was broadcast on March 11; it may be that a kinescope was made on the earlier date.
Thanks to Leif Bo Petersen for help with this session.
The vocalist is Ann Hathaway, not Ann Baker. These are two very different people. For
the evidence, see the note to the October 18, 1946 session.
