Originally recorded for the Clef label in 1956, Swings The Thing features the tenor great in a stellar sextet with Roy Eldridge (trumpet), Jimmy Jones (piano), Herb Ellis (guitar), Ray Brown (bass) and Jo Jones (drums). While Jacquets sessions as a leader may have been infrequent during this time, this session hits a magical mark with the 6-song set being highlighted by the tracks “Las Vegas Blues,” ?Harlem Nocturne,” and “Achtung.”
