Compil. US 1999 on DRG Records label
Jazz (Vocal, Big Band)
This compilation is in fact a reissue of two albums of The Hi-Lo's, "I Presume" (1955) and "In Stereo" (1959). First one is in mono, second one in stereo. For obscure reasons, the tracklistings of both LP's have been put in reverse order. Strangely too, the last track of "I Presume", "Shoeless Joe" is not included on that reissue.
