Recorded live at the Great Harlem Club Small's Paradise, New York City, 1962

...Babs Gonzales was a singer who did what he could to popularize bop, and was a pioneer in the scat vocalese style. He had stints with Charlie Barnet and Lionel Hampton's big bands, and then led his own group Three Bips & a Bop during 1946-1949. They recorded for Blue Note during 1947-1949, including the earliest version of “Oop-Pop-A-Da,” later covered by Dizzy, and such songs as “Weird Lullaby,” “Real Crazy,” “Professor Bop,” and “Prelude to a Nightmare”; among his sidemen on these dates were Tadd Dameron, Tony Scott, Roy Haynes, James Moody, J.J. Johnson, Julius Watkins, Sonny Rollins (making his recording debut), Art Pepper, Wynton Kelly, and even Don Redman. Read More...
