Jack Hill's band was very solid backing and played good swing on its own numbers, Roy Eldridge and Albert Ammons stole the show with their fine jazz, Ella Fitzgerald really made a tremendous hit (she later said to me that she had more fun working the Smoker than anything she had done in a long while) by here very swell singing, and Hildegarde proved herself far more than just a good piano player and better singer by her showmanship...

This collection, containing more than 400 separate pieces, is a sparkling example of the varied and divergent possibilities of the water-color medium. There are so many high-points of artistic value, so many outstanding examples of potential greatness, that it is neither just nor adequate to compress the exhibit within the rather arbitrary bounds of a brief review. However, one aspect of the collection which is surprisingly odd, yet quite...
