Until the release of
Rainbow Mist, this French Vogue LP was the most recent issue of the first very bebop sessions, six titles recorded by a 1944
Coleman Hawkins group that included trumpeter
Dizzy Gillespie. "Woody'n You" and "Disorder at the Border" showed that change was in the air while
Hawk's new exploration of the chords of "Body and Soul" on "Rainbow Mist" proved he was still growing as a musician. The second half of this LP finds the tenor-saxophonist in Paris, playing stomps and ballads while joined by a fine backup group.
