Carmen McRae backed up with The Australian Jazz Quintet. The show is from March 12, 1956. McRae is in fine form, as usual and the AJQ (as opposed to the MJQ) back her quite nicely and it's a shame they didn't record more together. Actually, AJQ recorded very little and they've been largely overlooked as far as Jazz history is concerned, but in the 1950's they were a very popular outfit on the club circuit.

A nice show and a good Sunday post-Christmas chill-out.
