Roy "Little Jazz" Eldridge was the outstanding jazz trumpet stylist of the 1940s, performing with verve, enthusiasm and daring aggression.

This box set tracks the career of this indefatigueable swinger from his days with the bands of leaders like Teddy Hill, Teddy Wilson, Fletcher Henderson, Gene Krupa and Artie Shaw to his classic early 1950s' session with Oscar Peterson.

Includes a 48-page illustrated booklet.
