I'd surely add Coast Concert (Hackett and Teagarden with top L.A. vets) 
and Jazz Ultimate, again Hackett and Big T only with NY sidemen.  The 
Coast Concert is so relaxed and free spirited as to make you float 
along. Their take on Our Monday Date, with Phil Stevens going over form 
string bass to tuba, would have made Louis very "at home."
So many sides, so little t ime!!
