Pete Brown (as); Jim Daddy Walker (eg); John Levy (b); Eddie Nicholson (d).
Jazzette (February 1, 1945): "At last, Pete's unique alto is given plenty of space, and he certainly makes the most of it. His humorous, trumpet-styled horn jumps like mad backed by John Levy's powerful bass and Eddie Nicholson's under-recorded drums." The reviewer praises Jim Daddy Walker's solo contributions (perhaps unwisely repeating Walker's claim to have taught Charlie Christian) and concludes by noting that "'Jim's Idea' is really 'Temptation' but has the best solos by both the stars" (p. 13).

@Mackermilk Did he record in the sixties? He died in 1963 and as far as I can ascertain his last recording was for Verve in 1959. He is, by the way, one of my favourite alto players and is greatly unappreciated.

I love Pete's style. Unlike Earl Bostic he never quite quit jazz. He was a unique voice, several times changing his way of playing a bit, but always recognizable. His work during the sixties is hardly known, unfortunately.

So many jazz fans hate him for his growl. He tried to turn the alto into another instrument, as did Paul Desmond, in the opposite direction. He did it successfully. Listen to free jazzers. During his years with Frankie Newton he played more conventionally. Again, in the sixties.
