Outstanding composition!
-
hey, who's the bass man in this performance??
-
Steve Swallow would have been an 18-year-old in 1958; this bassist looks older. The bassist is likely Teddy Kotick, who was 30 years old in 1958. Barry Galbraith is on guitar.
Gilbert Seldes was host of The Subject is Jazz (on NBC). :I:

The late, great Jimmy Cleveland!!! He was definitely doing his own thing and not derivative of anybody I can think of. What an original stylist!!
