A traditional jazz band that performed and recorded from the '40s until the end of the '70s. The personnel changed over the years, but they maintained an identity both in concert and through many sessions for Jazz Disc, Riverside, Audiophile, and Jazzology, among others. Group members included Booty Wood, Jim Dapogny, Clare Austin, Barrett Deems, and Joe Darensbourg. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi
