This release contains the complete LP First Place, which was J.J.Johnson's first album ever entirely in a quartet. The sessions, with master accompaniment by Tommy Flanagan, Paul Chambers and Max Roach, went so well that material for two albums was gathered (the other album, Blue Trombone, has been reissued on our companion volume AJC99002). As a bonus, three tracks from the original sessions but not included on the original album plus a complete 1954 session also featuring Johnson as the only horn.
