Ellington Moods ‎(CD, Album).

William Alonzo Anderson (12 September 1916 – 29 April 1981), known as Cat Anderson, was an American jazz trumpeter best known for his long period playing with Duke Ellington's orchestra, and for his extremely wide range (more than five octaves), especially his playing in the higher registers. You Go to My Head-110. Artists: Charlie Kohlhase. Sweet Georgia Brown-14.

Duke Ellington & John Coltrane is a jazz album by Duke Ellington and John Coltrane recorded on September 26, 1962, and released in February 1963 on Impulse! Records. It was one of Ellington's many collaborations in the early 1960s with musicians such as Count Basie, Louis Armstrong, Coleman Hawkins, Max Roach, and Charles Mingus, and placed him with a quartet (in this case, saxophone, piano, bass, and drums), rather than a big band

With Cat Anderson, Wild Onions, this session represents one of the only official studio recordings of Ellington trumpet star Cat Anderson, ironically both were done in Europe, by European companies. The first was recorded in 1958, and the second was this one, recorded in 1964. Anderson was primarily known as the ultimate high-note trumpet man for Ellington, but this session affords the listener with an opportunity to experience some of Anderson’s more subtle styles
