I just noticed that it's on Blue Note Records, which explains the album title. Rudy Van Gelder was Blue Note's recording engineer and recorded in his home studio (in his parents' living room!) in Hackensack from 1953-1959 before moving the studio to Englewood Cliffs in 1959. Ike Quebec - a jazz tenor saxaphonist - was also Blue Note's A&R guy............and we share a birthday!
