1954 studio album by Dizzy Gillespie
Afro Dizzy Gillespie . It was released in November 1954 through Norgran Records .[ 1] [ 2]
The AllMusic review states "Pairing Dizzy Gillespie with Cuban arranger/composer Chico O'Farrill produced a stunning session which originally made up the first half of a Norgran LP... A later small-group session features the trumpeter with an all-Latin rhythm section and flutist Gilberto Valdes... it is well worth acquiring."[ 3]
