This two-CD set from 1997 reissues Phil Nimmons five-part work, Atlantic Suite and the 17-minute Suite P.E.I., which was part of an obscure Canadian sampler LP, and adds a full CD of previously unreleased material.
Clarinetist/arranger Phil Nimmons led one of the most important jazz groups in Canada during 1953-1977, which by 1958 was known as Nimmons 'n' Nine. This two-CD set contains previously unreleased material recorded as radio transcriptions and/or broadcasts during 1959-1964, with 16 of the 21 selections being from 1963-1964.
