OK all you Jazz Scientists!

I'm trying to find out the personnel on the album in the subject line.  The 
vinyl I have is typical of that era - tons of info on what mike was used, 
what process etc., and scarcely a word about the musicians!  Ray Bauduc 
(drums) and Nappy Lamar (banjo) are mentioned only because they appear 
"courtesy of Capitol Records".

Besides the two mentioned above, there are Rich Matteson on helicon, Rick 
"Cougar" Nelson on trombone and then?

Trumpet?
Clarinet?
Bass? (on a couple of cuts)  (No, it wasn't Don Mopsick - he was already too 
old to play when this was recorded ;-) )
Piano?

Your insight and wisdom are greatly appreciated.

Those who answer all personnel correctly will recieve a weekend with me or a 
ten pound ham.
