Roy Brewster (vtb) on d-e; Jim Hall (g) on f-h.
The Fresh Sound reissue has November 8 as recording date for the two Paul Bryant tracks from this session. My guess is that this is a misreading of the date - 8/11 vs. 11/8. August 1960 was the month when producer Richard Bock first heard and subsequently recorded Paul Bryant. It is unlikely he recorded only two tracks at the August 11 session.

The take of This Is The Blues on the Pacific Jazz compilation LP of the same title is audibly different from that on the LP The Blues Message!
