Uncredited liner notes in French and English, with a mention of the Byas recent passing (Sept. 19, 1972).
Wonderful photography taken at the Blue Note in Paris, after the Dizzy Gillespie concert at Salle Pleyel on February 19, 1953. From left to right, Charles Delaunay, Dizzy Gillespie, Nicole Barclay, Don Byas, Gérard Pochonnet, Sarah Vaughan, Hubert Fol, and rear view, Lorraine Gillespie and D. Forest.

Track B2 "I Can't Help Lovin' That Man" is credited to Gershwin on release but I guess it's the Jerome Kern - Oscar Hammerstein II standard ...
Track B6 "April in Paris" is credited to Davis on release but I guess it's the popular song composed by Vernon Duke with lyrics by E. Y. Harburg. ...
