Pop + Jazz = Swing is an album arranged and conducted by Benny Golson featuring performances recorded in 1962 and originally released on the Audio Fidelity label.[ 2] Record producer Tom Wilson was involved in the sessions and wrote the album's liner notes.[ 3] The album utilised stereophonic sound to present a jazz group on the right channel and an 11-piece pop orchestra playing the same song or a related tune on the left channel which could be separated or mixed by the listener.[ 4] The related jazz tunes are contrafacts or borrowed chord progressions where new melodies are overlaid on an existing harmonic structure.
The jazz tunes were later released as Just Jazz! and both albums were combined on a CD reissue on the Jazz Beat label.
The recording of "Walkin'" is the last released recording of the famed rhythm section of Bill Evans, Paul Chambers, and Jimmy Cobb.[ 5]
