Note that jazzdisco.org and Tom Lord's Jazz Discography have different recording information for some tracks: A1 to A5 were recorded on January 3, 1957, not 1956. Art Pepper made no recordings between July 1954 and July 1956 as he was in prison.

However, despite being produced by Pete Welding, this Blue Note album mistakenly includes an alternate take of "Diane's Dilemma" instead of the song "Blues Out." Therefore, track D6 is "Diane's Dilemma (Alternate Take)." The listed "Blues Out" is incorrect. ——Center labels info—— Blue and white "Blue note Re-issue Series" labels ℗ 1976 United Artists Music And Records Group, Inc. ——Sleeve info—— Includes factory printed advertising inner sleeves Publishers: A1: Screen Gems-Columbia Music, Inc.
