This Is Billy Mitchell


This Is Billy Mitchell is an album by saxophonist Billy Mitchell, released in 1962 on Smash Records.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Although the tenor saxophonist is in typically fine form on six obscurities and two standards, this record's main significance is that it features the young vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, who was virtually at the beginning of his career.... Mainstream hard bop of the era".
