Rendezvous with Rex


Rendezvous with Rex is an album by cornetist Rex Stewart which was recorded in 1958 and released on the Felsted label.

Reception

Scott Yanow of AllMusic states: "This interesting and well-rounded LP has two separate sessions originally cut for the Felsted label. Cornetist Rex Stewart is fiery on the first date, jamming on a trio of his worthy but obscure originals... The three numbers from the later date have moody arrangements... Superior music that will hopefully resurface". Digby Fairweather in the Rough Guide to Jazz wrote: "this is a fine session with Stewart's sometimes buzzy open-horn still in full control".
