The complete original 1956 album 'Swing Goes Dixie' (originally Verve), presenting the great Roy Eldridge in an unusual context as the leader of a group playing mostly traditional and Dixieland jazz.

The group consists of a sextet, which also features trombonist Benny Morton, and two stars from the classic Count Basie rhythm section: Walter Page and Jo Jones.

As a bonus, there is a complete 1951 session that was also recorded for Verve a few years earlier. The date showcases Eldridge in a very similar mood to that of our main album. We have also included the only two tracks featuring Eldridge from a 1955 Ralph Burns LP.
