Featured with the leader and the pianist are reedman Hal Mckusick and the future drummer of the Bill Evans Trio, Paul Motian. "Listen To The Music Of Jerry Wald (Kapp KL 1043) was recorded in 1955 and features Wald on clarinet along with Evans, Eddie Costa, and Paul Motian again, in his first collaboration ever with the pianist. 16-page booklet for complete information.
