Goodman was on a fishing trip to Florida in August, 1959 when he heard a little group led by trombonist Bill Harris and tenor saxophonist Flip Phillips and decided to record with them . . this led to several tours and long engagements with a combination of Harris and Phillips with members of the Red Norvo orchestra, including Norvo himself, trumpeter Jack Sheldon, alto and flutist Jerry Dodgion, pianists Gene DiNovi and Russ Freeman, guitarist Jimmy Wyble, bassist Red Wooten and drummer John Markham. Using arrangements by Harris, Phillips, Norvo, Al Cohn and Mel Powell, this group sounded like a progressive big band and Goodman's playing was never better!
