Oop-Pop-A-Da is an album by the Moe Koffman Quintet featuring trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie recorded in 1988 and released on the Soundwing label.[1]

Reception

The Allmusic review stated "Diz's trumpet playing was clearly past its prime by 1988, but his scat singing on "Oop-Pop-A-Da" is quite virtuosic and outstanding, easily the high point of this little-known set".[2]
