This 1955 release, the first of two albums James would record for the Treasury label, found the bandleader and his orchestra tackling a baker's dozen of standards.

Harry James was a bandleader and trumpeter who led one of the most popular American big bands of the swing era. At the time of this release, James's band was still a going concern, though the popularity of big bands had waned considerably since their 1940s heyday.
